- The Malta-based cryptocurrency exchange amends its trading rules.

Users will be able to withdraw the surplus funds when the risk ratio for 5x leverage, moves above 125%
“When risk ratio is ≥125% under 5x leverage, the surplus balance in the margin account can be transferred out through “Transfer fund.” The rule for 3x leverage remains unchanged: when the risk ratio is ≥150%, the surplus balance in the margin account can be transferred out through “Transfer fund.”
The margin call for both leverage ratios is set at 120%. It means, that if the risk ration reached 120% or drops below, users will receive automatic notification via SMS, while 110% risk ratio will trigger a forced position liquidation.
