i. Account Values
Spot trades may have an affect on your account value, and consequently affect your Perpetuals trade variables. E.g. You have an account equity of 0.1 Eth. You buy 0.05 Eth worth of $UNIBOT. Later that 0.05 Eth of $UNIBOT is now worth 0.025 Eth. Your account equity is now 0.075 Eth and consequently the below will be affected. It is worth always keeping in mind the following:
Equity:
This is your total accounts value and is the sum of the following:
Deposited Ethereum (collateral)
Unrealized profit and loss (PnL) from current open trading positions.
Value of all tokens held.
IM Utilization:
Initial margin is the amount you deposit as collateral for a leveraged trade on Perpetuals.
IM Utilization reflects your initial margin deposits across all currently open positions. Should this reach 100% you will not be able to open any new positions.
MM Utilization:
Maintenance margin is the minimum amount of equity that you must hold to maintain open trade positions. Should this reach 100% you will be liquidated across all currently opened positions.
For further details about the IM and MM calculations, please see our margin and collateral guide.
