What Is a Margin Call?

Learn when and why a margin call occurs.

Updated over a week ago

A margin call is a preventive alert that notifies you when your credit is entering a risk zone.

At Quantia, this notification is triggered when your margin drops below 130%, but before it reaches the automatic liquidation level. Its purpose is to give you time to act and protect your collateral before liquidation occurs.

How to Improve Your Margin

You can take two actions to reduce risk:

  • Add more collateral: Deposit additional BTC or ETH to strengthen your active credit.

  • Repay part of your credit: Use USDT or a portion of your collateral to lower your debt.

These actions help increase your margin and keep your credit safe.


Email Notification

You’ll receive an email alert letting you know your credit has entered the risk zone, so you can take immediate action.
