🎓 Cross Margin or Isolated Margin? Learn how to protect your account! 📉
When trading Futures, choosing the correct margin type is essential to manage your risk. If you answered Cross Margin in the previous trivia, you’re right!
Here’s a simple explanation of how each one works:
🔄 Cross Margin
• How it works: All the available balance in your Futures wallet is shared across all your open positions.
• The benefit: If a trade goes wrong, you can use the remaining account balance as a backup to help prevent quick liquidation.
• The risk: If the market moves sharply against you in extreme conditions, you could lose your entire Futures wallet balance.
🔒 Isolated Margin
• How it works: The risk is strictly limited to a fixed amount assigned to that individual position.
• The benefit: If you get liquidated, you only lose the money you specifically put into that trade. The rest of your wallet is safe.
• The risk: Since you don’t have the support of the overall balance, the position is liquidated much faster if the price moves against you.
💡 Trader Tip: Use Isolated Margin if you’re just starting out or want to trade with high leverage on volatile assets. Leave Cross Margin for more advanced hedging strategies where you manage correlated positions.
