So what exactly is Avalanche margin trading?

Avalanche margin trading lets you buy and sell AVAX on Kraken using funds that could exceed the balance of your account. Unlike futures and derivatives trading, spot margin trading involves buying or selling the actual underlying assets, rather than financial contracts.

For example:
Suppose you fund your account with $5,000 USD. Using an extension of margin from Kraken, you could buy or sell $10,000 USD worth of AVAX/USD on the AVAX/USD order book with this account.

Fixed fees for margin trading

Another benefit of margin trading on Kraken is the extremely competitive fee structure. Depending on the currency pair you’re trading, we’ll charge up to only 0.02% to open a position and up to only 0.02% (per 4 hours) in rollover fees to keep it open.

Before using margin to trade AVAX, please take time to fully understand the unique risks involved. There are a lot of concepts to learn, but this is your money at stake, so it's worth your time to walk through everything carefully.
