# Margin Mode

## Margin Mode

Bitfunded has two different margin modes: "*Isolated*" and "*Cross*" margin modes. Users are free to use either margin mode. The margin types are explained below.

**Isolated Margin**

Each position has its own independent margin. This isolates the risk of each trade, limiting potential losses to the margin allocated to that specific position.

**Cross Margin**

The margin is shared across all open positions in your account. This can help avoid liquidation if one position incurs losses, but it also means that all positions are at risk if the overall margin level falls below the maintenance margin requirement.

**Adjust Your Margin Mode**

Navigate to the "Trade" screen. On the right-hand side, locate the dropdown button labeled "Isolated," which indicates your current margin mode. To modify your margin mode, click this button.

After clicking the dropdown button, the margin mode selection screen will open. On this screen, you can see the "Isolated" and "Cross" margin modes. Click on the margin mode you want to use and confirm the changes by clicking the "Ok" button.
