📱 Where to see the maintenance margin in the APP (mobile)?
Step by step (Binance App):
1️⃣ Open the Binance app
2️⃣ Go to Futures
3️⃣ Go to the Open Positions section
4️⃣ Tap your position (the pair you are trading)
5️⃣ The Position Details panel opens
There you will see:
Initial margin
Maintenance margin
Liquidation price
Available margin
📌 That number called "Maintenance margin" is the red line.
🧠 What is the maintenance margin? (summarized)
It is the minimum amount of money that the exchange requires you to have in order for your position to remain active.
👉 It is not your stop
👉 It is not your idea
👉 It is not optional
If your available margin falls below that number: ❌ The exchange automatically liquidates your position
⚠️ VERY important point
If you have multiple open positions:
The exchange sums all maintenance margins
Compares them against your total margin
If it doesn't reach: ➡️ closes everything, even if the price hasn't exploded
🧩 Phrase to remember
The maintenance margin does not give a warning.
If you cross it, the exchange takes control.
