1.Margin Trading: At Gate, investors use their own assets as margin/collateral to borrow great sums of capital for trading. Investors must repay the loans within the time limit.
2.Base Currency: The coin being traded. For example, in the BTC/USDT trading pair, BTC is the base currency.
3.Quote Currency: The currency used for pricing. For example, in the BTC/USDT trading pair, USDT is the quote currency.
4.Total Assets: The combined balance of the Spot Account and Margin Account, including Available + Frozen.
5.Transferred Assets: Assets transferred from the Spot Account into the Margin Account.
6.Borrowed Assets: Assets borrowed using the transferred assets as margin.
7.Available Assets: Assets in the Margin Account available for placing orders, including transferred and borrowed amounts.
8.Frozen: Assets in the Margin Account that are locked, typically due to pending orders.
9.Buy (Long): In a BTC/USDT trading pair, if one anticipates BTC will rise, they can borrow USDT to buy BTC at a lower price and sell at a higher price to earn a profit.
10.Sell (Short): In a BTC/USDT trading pair, if one anticipates BTC will fall, they can borrow BTC to sell high and buy back at a lower price to earn a profit.
11.Maintenance Margin Ratio (MMR): The MMR is a risk indicator for the account. Formula: MMR = Account Net Assets ÷ Maintenance Margin. The higher the MMR, the lower the leverage risk.
12.Liquidation: When the MMR ≤ 100%, liquidation will be triggered. Your margin will be used to repay the loan, and a 2% liquidation fee will be charged.
13.Est. Liq. Price: The estimated price at which liquidation will be triggered if the MMR reaches 100%.
