We may realise any of the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement.

    2.2. Maintenance of Sufficient Collateral. Margin transactions are subject to the Collateral requirements at all times.

You must monitor your Account to ensure that you meet the Collateral requirements continuously at all times.

      2.4.2 If at any time the Collateral is insufficient to meet the Collateral requirements or is in deficit, we have the right in our sole discretion (but not the obligation) without prior notice to or any authorization from you at any time, in any manner and through any market or dealer (where applicable) to:

    2.5. Management. We shall have full and exclusive authority to manage your Collateral (including, but not limited to, the close-out for the purpose of repayment and compensation of any indebtedness, deficiency or loss owing to us).

    5.1. You agree to conduct all trading, margin trading and/or borrowing on your own account and you claim full responsibility for your activities. We will not take any responsibility for any loss or damage incurred by you as a result of your use of the Services or the Site.

    5.2. You acknowledge and agree that:

      5.2.1. Trading markets are extremely volatile and can shift rapidly in terms of market depth, liquidity and trading dynamics. The use of leverage can work against you as well as work for you and can lead to large losses as well as gains.

      5.2.3. None of our employees, representatives or agents are authorized to provide any trading advice or recommendations.

      5.2.4. You must maintain in your margin account a sufficient amount of Digital Assets to meet any minimum balance requirements to engage in margin trading or to return your loan in full in a timely manner. Failure to meet a minimum balance requirement or failure to return an outstanding loan can result in the forced liquidation of Digital Assets in your Account without notice to you.

      5.2.5. You are not eligible for receiving forked coins split from any Digital Asset held in your margin account, even if you have not yet engaged in any margin trading or borrowing.

      5.2.6. The loan carries risks and the value of your Digital Assets may drop.

      5.2.9. Placing contingent orders will not necessarily limit your losses to the intended amounts, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.

      5.2.10. There is no guaranteed measure against losses on margin trading and, as a borrower, you may sustain a total loss beyond what you have deposited to your margin account.

    5.3. You acknowledge and agree that the risks associated with Digital Assets, Contracts trading and margin trading as set out in this Agreement is non-exhaustive and there may be additional risks not listed or foreseen by us. You have carefully assessed your financial standing and risk tolerance, and confirm that the risks are acceptable to you and that you are able to withstand any losses incurred in connection with such trading (including, but not limited to, the applicable margin requirements and transaction costs).
