I received an email telling me to make an additional margin deposit. How much do I need to deposit?

You can check the "Additional margin" and "Margin Call Due Date" on the Lightning Trade screen.

The methods of resolving the margin call are as follows.

・Deposit Japanese yen or Bitcoin into your margin account

・Partial or complete settlement of your positions

・Increase the leverage rate*

*If the leverage rate is set lower than the maximum value, it can be raised to resolve the margin call. It will not be raised if you have selected the maximum leverage rate. As an example, if margin call rules are applied with leverage 1x and the maintenance margin rate is subsequently 55%, the maintenance margin rate will become 110% when leverage becomes 2x, and the margin call will be resolved. However, be aware that if the market price continues to fluctuate by 5% or more, the maintenance margin rate will again fall below 100%, and margin call rules may be applied at the next timing of determination of margin call.

Please note that even if the maintenance margin rate exceeds 100% by methods other than listed above (market fluctuation, etc.), after the margin call is triggered, the margin call will not be cleared. If the market has changed abruptly, the Sell Out Rules is applied before the Margin Call Rules are applied.

It may take time for the amount of the Margin Call to be reflected on the trade screen even after all or part of the Margin Call clears. If the amount is not reflected, wait for a moment and try again. There may be delays in the Margin Call rules being applied. The Company will not be held liable for any losses incurred as a result of such delays.
