Frequently Asked Questions

What are the fees for spot margin trading?

Spot margin trading typically incurs the following fees:

• Interest on Borrowed Funds – You are charged interest for borrowing funds. The rate varies depending on the currency. Simply select a different currency on the lending page to view the real-time lending and borrowing interest for that currency.

• Trading Fees – Standard trading fees apply to buy and sell orders, which depend on your VIP level or maker/taker status.

What is leverage in spot margin trading?

Leverage allows you to control a larger position than your initial investment. For example, with 3x leverage, you can trade three times the amount of your deposited collateral. Leverage increases both the potential for profit and the risk of loss.

Can I use spot margin trading with multiple leverage options?

• Yes. You can select different leverage levels for each trade, depending on your risk tolerance and the specific pair you are trading. However, it’s important to consider the increased risk associated with higher leverage.

• Please note that each currency has its own maximum leverage limit, which changes based on the position value.

Can I be liquidated with spot margin trading?

Liquidation occurs when your margin balance falls below the required maintenance margin. If this happens, your position will be automatically closed to repay the borrowed funds. This can result in a loss of your collateral.

How do I avoid liquidation in spot margin trading?

• Always monitor your account's MMR. At 100% or greater, your account will enter liquidation.

• You can also set up Stop-Loss orders to automatically close your position if the market moves against you.
