CoinEx adopts a maintenance margin level system for risk control. If some users have large positions and when their positions are forcedly liquidated, others may experience auto-deleverage (ADL), which will bring risks to others. In this case, the maintenance margin level system will help avoid the situation.
Simply put, the maintenance margin level system is designed for all trading accounts with different maintenance margin ratios and maximum leverage based on different positions. The larger the position, the lower the limit on the maximum leverage available, and vice versa. In this way, it helps minimize the risk of forced liquidation.
Inverse Contract Leverage Description
CoinEx Inverse contract employs several adjustable leverages, ranging from 3X to 100X.
1. How to adjust the leverage
The leverage can be adjusted after the position is successfully opened and leverage can be adjusted under both Isolated and Cross margin modes. However, when there is an existing order in the current market, you can neither switch the margin mode nor adjust the leverage.
2. Impact of adjusting leverage
When adjusting the leverage, the current position will be affected, and the position margin of the current position will be recalculated after the adjustment. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the possible change in the liquidation price when adjusting the leverage.

How is Inverse Contract Margin Calculated
1. Position Margin
Position Margin = Initial Margin + Increased Margin - Decreased Margin + Unrealized PNL (Calculated at the Mark Price) + Settlement PNL
2. Frozen Margin
Frozen Margin: the frozen initial margin and trading fees when the current order cannot be executed immediately.
3. Initial Margin
Initial Margin: the minimum amount of margin for position opening and settling.
(1) Initial Margin = Settlement Value * Initial Margin Rate
(2) Initial Margin Rate = 1 / Leverage * 100%
(3) Settlement Value = Position Amount * Settlement Price
Please refer to What's Settlement Price for how to calculate settlement price when Pyramiding Auto-Settlement is enabled.
4. Maintenance Margin
Maintenance Margin: the minimum amount of margin required to keep your position open.
Maintenance Margin = (Position Amount * Contract Value) / Mark Price * Maintenance Margin Rate
5. Available Margin
Available Margin: available assets for new positions or margin.
Available Margin = Transfer-in Amount - Transfer-out Amount + Realized PNL + Unrealized PNL - Position Margin - Frozen Margin
