Mortgage interest on Mortgage taken out which paid off Margin Loan - deductible?

Mortgage of $150,000 taken a year after purchase of 1.5 million dollar condo? The original purchase one year before mortgage was made with margin on stock account of $150,000. The reason is that at that time I did not have enough time to get a bank mortgage as if I waited deal would have fallen through, Can I deduct the mortgage interest starting when I actually got a bank mortgage?
