Introduction

This article explains how to adjust the margin on an open Futures position in Coinlocally. Margin adjustments are only available when using Isolated Margin Mode, allowing you to add or remove margin to better manage risk and control your liquidation price.

Steps to adjust margin on your position

1. Ensure you are using Isolated Margin Mode

• Margin adjustments are only possible under Isolated Margin Mode.
• If your position is in Cross Margin, you must switch modes before opening a trade.

2. Open the Positions tab

• Go to the Positions section on the Futures trading interface.
• If you have an active position, you will see a [+] button next to it.

3. Add or remove margin

• Click the [+] button to open the margin adjustment window.
• Enter the amount of margin you want to add or remove.
• Review the updated details, then confirm the adjustment.

Additional notes

• Adjusting margin will change the effective leverage of your position.
• The liquidation price will be recalculated based on the new margin amount.
• You can preview the updated liquidation price before confirming the change.

Common Issues

• Margin cannot be adjusted if the position is under Cross Margin Mode.
• Entering an amount larger than your available balance will prevent the adjustment.
• Removing too much margin may push your liquidation price too close to the market price.
