How Do I Check My Margin Level Status in Crypto Futures on Pluang?

You can check your margin level status on your USDT Margin Balance page, where the top right corner shows your current level as a rising percentage from 0% toward 100% or higher. A low percentage means your position has more of a cushion before risk thresholds kick in, while a higher percentage means you're getting closer to forced action — Pluang applies an Initial Margin Call once your margin level passes 50%, and a Final Margin Call once it passes 75%, after which only close or reduce-exposure orders are allowed. Checking this figure regularly lets you see at a glance how close your account is to those thresholds without calculating unrealized PnL and Mark Price movements manually every time the market shifts.


  • The percentage reflects your current margin level on a rising 0%–100%+ scale — a single number displayed prominently at the top right of the USDT Margin Balance page, not a "percentage remaining" figure.
  • Check it regularly if you have open positions — margin level moves as Mark Price changes, so a level that looked safe earlier can shift quickly as the market moves against your position.
  • The two risk thresholds are fixed — Initial Margin Call triggers above 50%, and Final Margin Call triggers above 75%, at which point Pluang restricts you to closing or reducing exposure rather than opening new risk.
  • Use it alongside your In Use and Available to Move figures — the percentage shows the overall health of your margin, while those two figures show how your funds are allocated between committed and free balance.
  • Reviewing this page before opening a new position helps you confirm how much room you have before committing more margin, especially on positions using Cross Margin where risk is shared across your whole balance.
  • Cross and Isolated positions are measured separately — Cross Margin has one account-level margin level covering all your Cross positions, while each Isolated position has its own. A margin call can therefore apply to one isolated position without affecting your others.

Related questions:

Q: Where exactly do I find my margin level?
On your USDT Margin Balance page — the percentage is shown in the top right corner. It's the single figure Pluang uses to represent how close your account is to a margin call or liquidation, so it's the first thing worth checking whenever you have an open position.

Q: Does my margin level change automatically?
Yes. It updates as the Mark Price of your open positions moves, since that price drives your unrealized PnL and therefore your margin level. You don't need to refresh or recalculate it manually — the figure on your USDT Margin Balance page always reflects the current market.

Q: Why should I check my margin level regularly?
Monitoring it helps you catch a rising level early, ideally before it crosses the 50% Initial Margin Call threshold, so you can add margin or adjust positions with room to spare rather than reacting once you're already past 75%.

Q: Is the margin level the same as Available to Move?
No. Margin level is an overall percentage reflecting your account's risk relative to the liquidation thresholds, while Available to Move is the actual USDT amount not tied up in open positions and free to withdraw or transfer.

Q: What happens once my margin level crosses 75%?
That's your Final Margin Call threshold — past this point, Pluang only allows orders that close or reduce your existing exposure, not orders that add new risk, and liquidation follows if the level keeps climbing toward 100%.
