Note: At 2025-01-21 10:00 (UTC), Binance Margin will adjust the Initial and Maintenance Margin requirements on Cross Margin Pro to enhance the capital efficiency of users’ margin assets. Additionally, how Margin Level and other Cross Margin Pro parameters are calculated will be changed: collateral haircuts and open order losses will now be factored into these calculations. For the previous version of this FAQ, please refer to the second tab above (‘Old Pro Mode’).

Starting from 2024-12-17 00:00 (UTC), new and existing Cross Margin Pro users must complete an updated questionnaire and agree to the updated Margin Terms in order to use Cross Margin Pro. These requirements are in place to ensure that users are aware of and understand the upcoming changes to Cross Margin Pro, and make necessary changes to their positions. You may complete the questionnaire here.

If you do not meet the requirements above, existing Cross Margin Pro accounts will be subject to the following conditions:

  • From 2024-12-19 00:00 (UTC) onwards, Binance Margin will disable borrowing on these Cross Margin Pro accounts.
  • From 2025-01-15 00:00 (UTC) onwards, Binance Margin will switch these Cross Margin Pro accounts to Cross Margin Classic Mode. Binance Margin may also conduct partial liability repayments before this switch on accounts which are at risk of having Margin Levels below the Margin Call threshold in Classic Mode.
  • Impacted users may resume usage of Cross Margin Pro after they have completed the requirements above.

In this article, you will learn:

  • How to calculate the maximum borrow limit on Cross Margin Pro
  • Examples on how to calculate your limits

How to calculate Maximum Borrowable Amount?

The Cross Margin Pro maximum borrow limit is determined by your available margin amount. The maximum borrow amount of each token = Available Margin Amount / Initial Margin Rate of that token.

However, Position Tiers, Collateral Ratio and Open Order Loss may affect available margin and initial margin rates, which consequently changes the maximum borrowable amount for an account.

See the examples below on how maximum borrow amounts are calculated. Calculation formulas can be found in this FAQ - “How to Calculate the Margin Level on Cross Margin Pro”.

Example 1: Borrowing tokens across single or multiple Position Tiers

Note: The Position Tiers, Collateral Ratio and Index Price parameters used in this example are meant for illustrative purposes only. You should refer to the Cross Margin Pro Position Tiers and Cross Margin Collateral Ratio sections on the Margin Data page for the latest parameters.

Basic Parameters for Further Calculations

Let’s calculate how much you can borrow using 2 different accounts as examples:

ParameterAccount 1Account 2
Position

Collateral: 20,000 USDT

Liability: 10,000 USDT

Collateral: 50,000 USDT

Liability: 25,000 USDT

∑Collateral Value

= 20,000*1*1

= 20,000 USDT

= 50,000*1*1

= 50,000 USDT

∑(Liability + Interest)

= 10,000*1

= 10,000 USDT

= 25,000*1

= 25,000 USDT

∑Net Collateral

= 20,000 - 10,000

= 10,000 USDT

= 50,000 - 25,000

= 25,000 USDT

∑Open Order Loss= 0 (no open orders)= 0 (no open orders)
∑Maintenance Margin

= 10,000*2.50%

= 250

= 25,000*2.50%

= 625

∑Initial Margin

= 10,000*5.27%

= 527

= 25,000*5.27%

= 1317.5

Margin Level

= (10,000 - 0) / 250

= 40

= (25,000 - 0) / 625

= 40

Available Margin

= Max(0, 10,000 - 0 - 527)

= 9,473

= Max(0, 25,000 - 0 - 1317.5)

= 23,682.5

Additional BTC max borrowable amount

= Available Margin / Initial Margin Rate of assets to be borrowed at its Position Tier(s)

= 9,473 / 5.27% at Tier 1

= 179753.32068311 USDT

= ~3.59 BTC

= Available Margin / Initial Margin Rate of assets to be borrowed at its Position Tier(s)

= 10,540 / 5.27% (Tier 1) + 13,142.5 / 11.12% (Tier 2)

= 200,000 + 118187.9496

= 318187.9496 USDT

= ~6.36 BTC

Calculating the additional BTC max borrowable amount in Account 2 is not as straightforward as Account 1, due to the borrowable amounts falling into more than one Position Tier. In this case, the maximum borrowable amount fully utilizes Position Tier 1 of BTC and part of Position Tier 2.

1. The available margin needed to borrow 200,000 USDT worth of BTC is first calculated using 200,000 * 5.27% = 10,540.

2. The available margin once Position Tier 1 is used up, can be calculated using the original available margin (23,682.5) deducted by the available margin needed to fully borrow 200,000 USDT worth of BTC (10,540), which brings us to 13,142.5 in available margin.

3. The remaining borrowable amounts can thus be calculated using 13,142.5 / 11.12%, where 11.12% is the initial margin rate of Tier 2, which results in ~118187.9496 USDT worth of BTC.

4. The total maximum borrowable amount for BTC in Account 2 is therefore 200,000 + 118187.9496 = 318187.9496 USDT, equivalent to approximately 6.36 BTC.

Example 2: Open Order Loss reducing maximum borrowable amount

Note: The Position Tiers, Collateral Ratio and Index Price parameters used in this example are meant for illustrative purposes only. You should refer to the Cross Margin Pro Position Tiers and Cross Margin Collateral Ratio sections on the Margin Data page for the latest parameters.

Basic Parameters for Further Calculations

Let’s examine how Open Order Loss may reduce the available margin of an account and consequently its maximum borrowable amount:

Collateral: 50,000 USDT

Liability: 25,000 USDT

Collateral: 50,000 USDT

Liability: 25,000 USDT

∑Collateral Value

= 50,000*1*1

= 50,000 USDT

= 50,000*1*1

= 50,000 USDT

∑(Liability + Interest)

= 25,000*1

= 25,000 USDT

= 25,000*1

= 25,000 USDT

∑Net Collateral

= 50,000 - 25,000

= 25,000

= 50,000 - 25,000

= 25,000

∑Open Order Loss= 0 (no open orders)

= = max(0, collateral value of 20,000 USDT to be sold - collateral value of 100 SOL to be bought)

Collateral Value of 20,000 USDT

= 20,000*1*1

= 20,000 USDT

Collateral Value of 100 SOL

= 50*200*0.8 + 50*200*0.5

= 13,000 USDT

Open Order Loss

= max(0, 20,000 - 13,000)

= 7,000

∑Maintenance Margin

= 25,000*2.50%

= 625

= 25,000*2.50%

= 625

∑Initial Margin

= 25,000*5.27%

= 1317.5

= 25,000*5.27%

= 1317.5

Margin Level

= (25,000 - 0) / 625

= 40

= (25,000 - 7,000) / 625

= 28.8

Available Margin

= Max(0, 25,000 - 0 - 1317.5)

= 23,682.5

= Max(0, 25,000 - 7,000 - 1317.5)

= 16,682.5

Additional BTC max borrowable amount

= Available Margin / Initial Margin Rate of assets to be borrowed at its Position Tier(s)

= 10,540 / 5.27% (Tier 1) + 13,142.5 / 11.12% (Tier 2)

= 200,000 + 118187.9496

= 318187.9496 USDT

= ~6.36 BTC

= Available Margin / Initial Margin Rate of assets to be borrowed at its Position Tier(s)

= 10,540 / 5.27% (Tier 1) + 6,142.5 / 11.12% (Tier 2)

= 200,000 + 55238.3093

= 255238.3093 USDT

= ~5.10 BTC

In this example, the Open Order Loss caused by placing an order to buy SOL using USDT has reduced the available margin, even before the order was filled. A lower available margin will therefore result in lower maximum borrowable amounts.
