The following are some frequently QA about cross margin:
1. Does cross margin mode still use a single currency as its margin?
Answer: Yes.
2. Does the fact that a contract isn’t enabled mean the current methods for placing orders or requests remain the same?
Answer: Yes, it remains unchanged.
3. Can a symbol be changed to cross margin mode, and if so, does the order's margin mode for that symbol still apply after the change?
Answer: The correct margin mode must be selected when placing the order, and cannot be changed midway.
4. After setting the cross margin, does the leverage on the order still apply?
Answer: No, the cross margin leverage takes priority.
5. Is there any difference in latency between cross margin and isolated margin?
Answer: From internal testing results, there has been concluded to be no noticeable difference.
6. Does enabling cross margin mode disable the Auto-Deposit feature, or do they work simultaneously for a while?
Answer: Auto-Deposit remains functional in isolated margin but is not applicable under cross margin.
