What are the risks of margin pledging?

Here are some risks of margin pledging: 

  • Market Volatility: If the value of your pledged assets falls significantly, you might face a margin call, requiring you to deposit additional funds or risk having your positions automatically liquidated.
  • Inability to sell: Your pledged assets become less readily available for sale until they are un-pledged.
  • Increased Risk: Margin trading inherently amplifies both potential gains and losses.
