Calculate the minimum and maximum collateral that can be assigned to your derivative position.
When adjusting collateral on a derivative position, the system can sometimes return an error: ["error",110202,"collateral: market risk"]. The error prevents the reduction of assigned collateral to a point where the risk of liquidation would be too high. When updating the collateral through the UI, minimum and maximum values are shown to prevent such an error. When updating collateral through the API, this endpoint can be used to calculate these minimum and maximum values.
Position required
An open position is required on the pair for which you would like to calculate the collateral limits.
