If securities in your portfolio got sold automatically it's because you
were in violation of the account's margin requirements.
After an account's buying power goes below zero the swill send out a margin
call email telling the user to sell some securities to bring buying power back
into positive territory. If this does not happen, we will automatically
liquidate a portion of the portfolio.
