Editing Crypto futures margin explained (section)

== How Does Crypto Futures Margin Work? ==
Margin is the amount of capital required to open and maintain a futures position. It acts as collateral to cover potential losses. In crypto futures trading, margin is expressed as a percentage of the total contract value. For example, if a futures contract is worth $10,000 and the margin requirement is 10%, you need $1,000 to open the position.

=== Key Terms ===
* **Initial Margin**: The minimum amount required to open a position.
* **Maintenance Margin**: The minimum amount required to keep the position open.
* **Leverage**: A tool that amplifies your trading position, allowing you to control a larger contract size with a smaller amount of capital. For example, 10x leverage means you can control $10,000 worth of crypto with just $1,000.
