Set Risk Limit

The risk limit will limit the maximum position value you can hold under different margin requirements. If you want to hold a bigger position size, you need more margin. This interface can set the risk limit of a single position. If the order exceeds the current risk limit when placing an order, it will be rejected. Click here to learn more about risk limit.
