1  Economy / Trading Discussion / choosing which collateral is deducted in a margin trading loss? on: July 09, 2017, 10:43:07 AM
In my example, I was long LTC/BTC pair on poloniex while using XRP and XMR as collateral in the margin account. After I took a loss it deducted from my XMR when I would have preferred it to be deducted from XRP. Is there a way to choose which collateral gets deducted first? Or is it just randomly assigned by the system?

In exchanges like Poloniex and Bitfinex when you trade on margin, is the total loan interest fees incurred the same if you close out your margin position within 2 minutes vs 2 days? I ask this because the "loans" are typically on a 2 days contract. Ideally it should be prorated but I am not sure if it's done that way.
I have done few margin trading in polo before and I am quite sure that they will deduct interest based on time you will keep your order open. If you close it as soon as you create it, they will deduct small interest.

Thanks that's what I like to hear. Although if anyone knows "for sure" instead of "quite sure" please respond too. Smiley

I rarely use bitfinex but if I'm not mistaken it should be different when you close your deal in 2 minutes than 2 days, have you tried to send a support ticket?
No I haven't. Based on my experience with my polo ticket submission regarding Level 2 verification (which took two months), they have not responded even once. I assume it would be the same for these sort of questions.

Three weeks after my original post I still have not found the answer.
