Margin trading can amplify your position by borrowing funds, allowing users to achieve larger holdings with a smaller initial capital, thus increasing potential gains while also raising the risk of losses.
1. Margin Trading Entry
📱Open the CoinEx App and go to [Spot] > [Margin Trading] to enter the margin trading page.
2. Buy Long with Margin
When you expect the token price to rise, you can borrow USDT to boost your buying power — buy the target crypto at a lower price, then sell it after the price increases. Once you repay the loan, you profit from the price difference.
📈 Example: Going Long on BCH
Borrow USDT → Buy BCH at a low price → BCH price rises → Sell BCH → Repay USDT loan + Take profit
3. Sell Short with Margin
When you expect the token price to fall, you can borrow the target crypto and sell it first. When the price drops, buy back the crypto at a lower price, repay the loan, and take profit from the price difference.
📉 Example: Going Short on BCH
Borrow BCH → Sell BCH at a high price → BCH price drops → Buy back BCH → Repay BCH loan + Take profit
4. Auto Borrow & Auto Repay
To optimize the margin trading experience, CoinEx supports automatic borrowing and automatic repayment in margin trading:
(1) Auto Loan: The system will automatically detect whether a crypto loan is needed when placing an order. If needed, the system will automatically borrow assets for you and complete the transaction.
(2) Auto Repayment: All your margin accounts will be reviewed every 30 minutes by the system. When the asset available in the corresponding account is more than the asset to be repaid, auto-repayment will be triggered.
