How tightly regulated is investment margin lending in the US?

  You can get SPAN margin if you have enough money, margin is calculated dynamically based on implied volatility and other metrics. I’m not very familiar with how it works, I have a regular margin account. Standard margin accounts allow 2x overnight leverage and 4x day trade leverage (must close below 2x leverage at market close)
