# Portal FAQ

Portal FAQ

Here are answers to common questions about using Portal on Loopring DeFi for leveraged trading.

***

<details>

<summary>Can I change my leverage after opening a position?</summary>

Yes.\
You can adjust the leverage on an open Portal position by:

* Going into the **Positions** tab.
* Selecting your open position.
* Using the **leverage** toggle to increase or decrease your leverage level.

Adjusting leverage will affect your borrowing amount and margin level.\
Always monitor your updated liquidation price after making changes.

</details>

***

<details>

<summary>Can I add more collateral after opening a position?</summary>

Yes.\
You can add additional collateral at any time through the **Collateral Management** section.\
Adding collateral improves your margin level and reduces liquidation risk.

</details>

***

<details>

<summary>What happens if my margin level falls too low?</summary>

If your margin level falls below **1.10**, your position becomes eligible for liquidation.

* Liquidation may occur automatically to repay the borrowed amount.
* You can prevent liquidation by adding more collateral or partially closing the position early.

</details>

***

<details>

<summary>Can I manually close a position at any time?</summary>

Yes.\
You can close your open position at any time from the **Positions** tab in Portal.\
Closing locks in your current profit or loss based on the market price at that moment.

</details>

***

<details>

<summary>How is the margin level determined?</summary>

Your **margin level** measures the health of your leveraged position.\
It is calculated as:

`Margin Level = (Balance + Collateral) / Total Debt`

* **Balance** = Unrealized profit or loss
* **Collateral** = The assets you've supplied to support the position
* **Total Debt** = Borrowed tokens plus accumulated funding costs

A higher margin level means a safer position.\
If your margin level drops below 1.10, your position becomes eligible for liquidation.

</details>

***

<details>

<summary>What happens if I get liquidated?</summary>

If your position is liquidated:

* Your collateral is used to repay the borrowed tokens.
* Any remaining collateral (after debt and liquidation fees) will be returned to your account.
* Your open position will be forcibly closed.

> \[!TIP]\
> 💡 Keeping your margin level above **1.5** is recommended to stay in a low-risk zone and avoid liquidation.

</details>

***

<details>

<summary>Can I open multiple leveraged positions at once?</summary>

Yes.\
You can open multiple Portal positions simultaneously.

Monitor each position separately through the **Positions** tab.
