that's counter intuitive
higher margin requirements required people to sell to meet the new, more strict margin requirements. if margin requirements had stayed the same, a simlar sell off would not have been forced
in the long run, i agree, it makes volitility decrease, but a large sell off as a result of increased margins is just that and nothing more
