# Maintenance Margin

Maintenance Margin Coefficient depends on the asset and leverage traded. The higher the leverage the higher the MM coefficient. This is necessary in order to mitigate the risk of slippage when margin calling a position during a violent price move.

Check the Asset page for the specific values.

{% hint style="info" %}
This value affects only in the margin call price. Make sure to check the estimated margin call price in the order confirmation popup before signing the order.
