Can I prevent automatic liquidation if I receive a margin call?

Automatic liquidation is a process where your exchange will automatically close out your positions if your account falls below the required margin level. This is done to protect both you and the exchange from potential losses. When your account falls below the required margin level, it means that you do not have enough funds to cover your losses and the exchange will close out your positions to prevent further losses.

The short answer is yes, you can prevent automatic liquidation on your margin account. There are two ways to do this:
