Active leverage Crypto

Written by Theo T.

The maximum leverage depends on the respective asset class:

  • 5x leverage for BTC, ETH, and SOL

  • 3x leverage for all other cryptocurrencies

The position size is always displayed as the total position value at the time of opening. Leverage is fixed and cannot be adjusted manually.

Example:

The price of BTC is 100,000 USDT.

You open a position of 1 BTC with 5x leverage.

  • Position value: 1 BTC × 100,000 USDT = 100,000 USDT

  • Required margin (at 5x leverage): 100,000 USDT ÷ 5 = 20,000 USDT

This means you control a position worth 100,000 USDT while only needing to provide 20,000 USDT as margin.
