Understanding combined balance and negative balances

Your main wallet's combined balance equals your Spot Total plus your Margin Net Equity (positions minus loans, plus or minus profit/loss). Borrowed assets appear as negative numbers in your currency grid this way, your total exposure adds up correctly.

Example breakdown

1. BTC

• Total Exposure: +0.200000 BTC (~$10,000)

• Available: 0

• Why?: You bought BTC using borrowed USDT

2. USDT

• Total Exposure: −7,000 USDT

• Available: 1,000 USDT

• Why?: You borrowed 8,000 USDT but you have 1,000 USDT in your Spot account. The final exposure calculation is: 1,000 − 8,000 = −7,000

3. Combined Balance

• Total Exposure: $3,200

• Available: -

• Why?: This is the result of adding the value of your assets and subtracting your debts, plus current returns: $10,000 (BTC) − $8,000 (loan) + $200 profit
