# Automatic Margin Call

A function known as an automatic margin call enables traders to automatically add the asset supplied as the collateral that has been held to prevent liquidation. When the automated margin call feature is activated, Keep Finance will utilize your available balance to fill the margin if your margin level is about to reach the maintenance margin level. The additional sum is equivalent to your existing position's initial margin. Keep Finance will use all of the remaining balances to cover the position's margin if the available balance is insufficient. The liquidation price is further distant from the posted price once the margin is taken into account.

If there is a balance left over, neither the automated margin call nor the additional margin needed to close the trade will be added.
