Cross Margin Margin Balance − Total Initial Margin − Frozen
Portfolio Margin Equity − Total Initial Margin − Frozen |
Initial Margin (for Open Positions and Active Orders) |
The initial margin is the minimum amount of funds required to create derivative orders and positions |
Active Order Initial Margin = (Order Value / Leverage) + Estimated Fee to Open + Estimated Fee to Close Position
USDT & USDC Contracts: Order Value = Order Size × Order Price
Inverse Contracts: Order Value = Order Size ÷ Order Price
Position Initial Margin = (Position Value / Leverage) + Estimated Fee to Close Position
USDT & USDC Contracts: Position Value = Position Size × Mark Price
Inverse Contracts: Position Value = Position Size ÷ Mark Price
IM for Hedged Positions (Cross Margin Mode): Position with Higher Value: 1. Long position IM = (Mark Price × Hedged Position Size ÷ Leverage) + [Entry Price × Hedged Position Size × (1 - 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2] + (Entry Price × Net Position Size × (1 - 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate)
When fully hedged, net position size = 0
2. Short position IM = (Mark Price × Hedged Position Size ÷ Leverage) + [Entry Price × Hedged Position Size (1 + 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2] + (Entry Price × Net Position Size × (1 + 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate)
When fully hedged, net position size = 0
Position with Lower Value: 1. Long position IM= Entry Price × Hedged Position Size × (1 − 1 / Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2
2. Short position IM= Entry Price × Hedged Position Size × (1 + 1 / Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2 |
Initial Margin (on Borrowed Assets) |
The amount of initial margin taken up for Spot Margin Trading |
Asset Borrow Size × IM Rate for Borrowed Asset |
IM Rate (for Borrowed Assets) |

Portfolio Margin ABS [Min (0, Equity - Frozen)] |
Maintenance Margin (for Open Positions and active orders) |
The maintenance margin is the minimum amount of funds required to maintain derivatives position.
The maintenance margin rate required is based on your risk limit. MMR requirements for open positions and order increases as your risk limit tiers rise. Please check the risk limit of the respective trading pair here. |
Maintenance Margin = Position Size × Mark Price × Maintenance Margin Rate + Estimated Fee to Close Position Position with Higher Value: 1. If it is a long position MM = [(Mark Price × Net Position Size × MMR) − MM Deduction] + [Entry Price × Hedge Position Size × (1 - 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2] + [Entry Price × Net Position Size × (1 - 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate]
When fully hedged, net position size = 0
2. If it is a short position MM = [(Mark Price × Net Position Size × MMR) − MM Deduction] + [Entry Price × Hedge Position Size × (1 + 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2] + [Entry Price × Net Position Size × (1 + 1 ÷ Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate]
When fully hedged, net position size = 0
Position with Lower Value: 1. If it is a long position MM = Entry Price × Hedged Position Size × (1 − 1 / Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2
2. If it is a short position MM = Entry Price × Hedged Position Size × (1 + 1 / Leverage) × Taker Fee Rate × 2 |
Maintenance Margin (for Borrowed Assets) |
The amount of maintenance margin occupied by the asset that has triggered auto borrowing. |
Borrowed Amount × MM Rate by Borrowed Asset |
Maintenance Margin Rate (for Borrowed Assets) |
The rate of margin required to maintain borrowed assets
The maintenance margin rate required is based on your position tiers. MMR requirements for borrowed funds increase as your position tiers rise. |
Please refer to the maintenance margin rate required for each borrowed coin here. |
