Cardano Margin Trading: Trade with Leverage

Cardano margin trading allows eligible customers to trade ADA with a balance greater than their initial deposit, also known as leverage. Unlike our traditional Spot Trading, which allows participants to trade ADA with their deposited funds, Margin Trading enables enthusiasts to increase their purchasing power by borrowing a certain amount of credit from CEX.IO.

Such a trading strategy may allow users to enjoy increased rewards, but it also carries some inherent risks, which we’ll both discuss in later sections. So, without further ado, let’s discuss ADA margin trading and how to trade with leverage on CEX.IO.
