**Chart on the left indicates price movement, and the interface on the right displays 3 interactive buttons:**&#x20;

1. Long/Short nBTC
2. Stablecoin choice, token balance, input amount for trading
3. &#x20;Leverage Bar

3. Adjust the leverage that you are comfortable with. Notice that the liquidation price varies varies depending on the leverage.&#x20;

   Note: Its important to keep track of the liquidation price to ensure your position is not liquidated.

   1. If you go long on an asset, your position will be liquidated if its below the liquidation price
   2. If you shorted an asset, your position will be liquidated if its above the liquidation price&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

```
GET https://guide.rhea.finance/near-chain-guides/margin-trading/guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
