How PnL works in X-Perps?
This means unrealized losses are not just a display value — they directly affect your position risk. If unrealized losses increase and the mark price moves closer to your liquidation price, your margin buffer may shrink.

If you take no action, the position may be liquidated under platform risk rules.What's realized PnL in X-Perps?Apr 9, 2026Published on Apr 9, 2026Sep 9, 2026Updated on Sep 9, 2026FAQWhat is futures combo?
