Margin call level of 25% means that if your account equity drops to or below 25% of the margin currently used to hold open positions in your account, you get a margin call.

Stop-out level of 20% means that if your account equity drops to or below 20% of the margin currently used to hold open positions in your account, your positions will be closed automatically. The broker will close enough positions to return your equity/margin ratio above the stop-out level.

You may need to ask your broker about this, or other reliable sources. I'm sure you can get a good response.

I think the question was answered already.

Exactly, thank you very much for your proper answer! Actually, most of the new traders are confused about MC, definitely when I was a new trader then I was also confused.
