Margin Trading Overview

Overview

Trading on margin allows you to execute trades beyond the balance of your Go Network Account. After transferring funds from your Go Account into a Collateral Account, you can trade using your Margin Trading Account.

The following assets are accepted as collateral:

• USD
• USDT
• USDC
• BTC

You can execute trades as long as they are below your Net Open Position (NOP) limit for a particular asset and you have not reached your global NOP maximum. BitGo calculates your NOP limit and sets risk limits for your account.
