Max, Cross and Isolated Modes
Understanding Margin Modes: Isolated, Cross, and Max
Margin modes determine how your funds are allocated for trades. Millionero offers three modes: Isolated, Cross, and Max. Let’s break them down step by step.
Step 1: Access Margin Mode Options
On the Order Panel, locate the margin mode options: Isolated, Cross, and Max.
The current mode will be highlighted, and you can switch modes by clicking on a different option.
Step 2: Choose the Right Margin Mode
Isolated Mode:
Each position uses a separate margin.
Only the funds allocated to that specific position are at risk. This means if the market moves against your trade, it won't affect your other positions or your overall balance.
You can control the leverage and margin for every position individually.
Use Case: Best for managing risk on specific trades.
(Example: If you open a position with 50 USDT in margin, the maximum loss for that trade will only be 50 USDT, even if your overall account balance is higher.)
Cross Mode:
All positions share access to your overall equity.
Any open position can use your entire available balance as support.
This mode is useful for ensuring positions don’t liquidate easily since all available funds act as a buffer.
Use Case: Ideal for experienced traders who want to maximize account utilization.
(Example: If one position is losing and another is gaining, the gains can offset the losses since the margin is shared.)
Max Mode:
Works like Cross Mode but locks in only the minimum required margin for each position.
This gives you greater flexibility to use leftover margin for other trades.
Use Case: Suitable for advanced strategies where you want to balance risk and efficiency.
(Example: If you need to manage multiple trades simultaneously, Max ensures efficient margin usage.)
Step 3: Confirm Your Selection
After selecting your desired margin mode, click Confirm to apply the change.
A confirmation pop-up will explain the mode you’ve selected and its implications.
