Line of credit on brokerage account

I am planning to take the line of credit against the stocks I have in my brokerage account.

This is because I cannot sell my stocks at their current prices as it will end up in huge losses.

The line of credit helps me to borrow money at lower rate against my stocks and fulfill my financial needs.

Will the interest I pay for the money I borrow from my brokerage account for the line of credit eligible for deducting the taxes?
