What is Binance Margin Trading?

2024-06-19

Main Takeaways

  • Binance Margin Trading enables users to borrow funds against their holdings and utilize leverage, ultimately allowing for more capital-efficient trading. Margin Trading supports leveraged long and short positions across a variety of digital assets on the spot market, thus allowing our users to capitalize on both rising and falling markets.

  • When certain requirements are met, borrowed digital assets can be transferred out of the margin wallet and/or withdrawn from the platform to execute cross-exchange arbitrage strategies.

  • Negative equity protection is in place to safeguard users in case their positions get liquidated and the proceeds from selling the assets in their margin accounts are insufficient to repay the outstanding principal and interest.

Margin trading allows users to borrow funds against their holdings and utilize leverage, ultimately allowing for more capital-efficient trading.  However, it also comes with increased risks, as not only potential profits but potential losses get amplified. Binance's Margin Trading supports leveraged long and short positions across a variety of digital assets on the spot market, offering up to 10x leverage through our Isolated Margin and Cross Margin products. Overall, Binance Margin offers over 600 margin pairs, the largest number in the market. Here's everything you need to know about how Margin Trading works on Binance.

Margin Borrowing Limits

Binance Margin loans do not have fixed terms; they can be repaid at any time, thereby providing greater flexibility for implementing trading strategies. Depending on the selected margin product, the margin borrowing limits will differ based on the digital assets borrowed, the chosen leverage, and/or the user's VIP tier.

  • In Cross Margin, the borrowing limits are tiered based on the user's VIP level.

  • In Isolated Margin, the borrowing limits are tiered based on the user’s VIP level, the tier of the position, and the leverage selected by the user.

  • In Cross Margin Pro, the borrowing limits are tiered according to the leverage used.

Margin Loan Interest

Margin loan interest is the cost incurred by users for borrowing digital assets to trade on margin. The specific interest rate is determined based on demand, available supply, and the type of digital assets borrowed. Interest is incurred hourly and only on the loan amount (simple Interest).

Binance sets a daily interest rate cap for better user security. For current rates, please see Interest Rates.

Margin Collateral

Binance Margin supports a substantial number of digital assets as margin collateral. For a list of supported digital assets, please see margin data.

Collateral Ratios

Certain margin assets may be valued on a discounted basis using a “Collateral Ratio,” a percentage at which the asset is recognized as collateral. Please see Collateral Ratios for more details.

  • Collateral Ratio is tiered and may change as the relevant margin asset amount in your Cross Margin account increases/decreases.

  • Collateral Value refers to the total value of all assets in your Cross Margin account (in USDT), taking into account the relevant Collateral Ratio (the percentage at which the relevant asset is valued). 

  • Collateral Value Impacts your maximum borrowable and transfer-out amounts, however, it does not impact your Margin Level for liquidation purposes, which will continue to be calculated based on the total assets without any haircuts.

Margin Call

If the Margin Level falls below a certain value, Binance may issue a margin call, requiring the user to deposit additional collateral in the margin account or to close or downsize their position to bring the Margin Level back above the required level. Users will receive a notification either through email, SMS, website, or mobile app. If the user does not take the necessary action, his collateral assets in the margin account may be sold (or “liquidated”).

  • For Isolated Margin margin call thresholds, please refer to Isolated Margin.

  • For Cross Margin margin call thresholds, please refer to Cross Margin.

  • For Cross Margin Pro margin call thresholds, please refer to Cross Margin Pro.

Platform Risk Management

All our margin loans are over-collateralized and have liquidation protocols in place, in line with our prudent approach to risk management. If a user’s Margin Level falls below the liquidation level, we will liquidate the user’s collateral. This means that the proceeds from the sale of the user’s collateral will be used to repay any outstanding liabilities.

  • For Isolated Margin liquidation thresholds, please refer to Isolated Margin.

  • For Cross Margin liquidation thresholds, please refer to Cross Margin.

  • For Cross Margin Pro liquidation thresholds, please refer to Cross Margin Pro.

  • Further information about how the Margin Level is determined for Cross Margin and Isolated Margin can be found here.

Negative Equity Protection

Binance maintains a margin insurance fund that protects users in case their positions get liquidated and the proceeds of selling the assets in the margin account are not sufficient to repay the outstanding principal and interest. This insurance fund is maintained by charging users who are subject to a forced liquidation a fee, which is transferred to the margin insurance fund.

Disclaimer and Risk Warning: Digital asset prices are subject to high market risk and price volatility. The information provided does not constitute, in any way, a solicitation or recommendation or inducement to buy or sell the products. The value of your investment may go down or up, and you may not get back the amount invested. Cross-margining contributes to providing greater leverage than a regular margin account, and greater leverage creates greater losses in the event of adverse market conditions. There is increased risk that a user's cross-margin positions will be liquidated involuntarily, causing possible loss.
