The Maximum Total Margin feature in SuperX is a vital risk management tool that limits the total dollar amount of margin a copied wallet can use across all active trades. This feature enables you to maintain control over your overall exposure, ensuring your trading strategy aligns with your financial goals while mitigating the risk of over-leveraging in volatile markets.
When you set a Maximum Total Margin for a copy-traded wallet, you’re establishing a ceiling on the cumulative dollar amount of margin that can be allocated across all trades within that wallet.
