Important!

When it comes to derivative strategies, users should be aware that, due to convexity and leverage, there is a price at which the position will be liquidated unless additional margin is added to the account, also known as a margin call.
This accounts for both the initial margin used and the effects of convexity.


At cryptobots.io, we adopt a conservative approach to risk management by limiting leverage to a maximum of 1x out of 125x possible.
This conservative leverage level provides approximately a 50% safety net (measured from the average buy/sell price) before additional margin is required to maintain the position.
