Manage a Margin Position

Manage margin positions on Nolus with real-time data, clear controls, and a full view of performance, risk, and key metrics in one interface

Updated over a month ago

Managing your margin leverage positions on Nolus is simple and intuitive, thanks to the structured layout and real-time data provided in the Margin section. Once you connect your wallet and open the Margin page, you’ll see a list view of all your active positions. Each entry displays essential information such as the leveraged asset, position type (Long or Short), PnL (both percentage and dollar value), position size, date opened, and quick access to actions like closing the position.

At the top of the list view, you can toggle between key metrics including Unrealized PnL, Margin, and Debt to get a comprehensive snapshot of your portfolio’s performance. This makes it easy to assess profitability and risk across multiple positions at a glance.

Clicking on any position contract ID opens a detailed view that consolidates everything you need to monitor, understand, and actively manage that specific margin position. The top section of this view clearly indicates the position type and displays a shortened version of the contract ID for easy reference. Key data points such as the current PnL, date opened, and position size are shown prominently, alongside buttons to repay debt, close the position, or share your PnL on social media.

Just below, a real-time asset price chart powered by Nolus’ Oracle system allows you to toggle between multiple timeframes—24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days—to evaluate price trends and monitor your position’s sensitivity to market movements. The chart also visually overlays the current asset price and liquidation trigger, helping you keep track of risk in real time.

Beneath the chart is the Summary section, which provides a comprehensive breakdown of your position’s financials. This includes the margin balance, provided collateral, debt owed (comprising both the borrowed principal and accrued interest), the average purchase price of the leveraged asset, DEX swap fees, the liquidation trigger price, and the monthly interest rate applied to your position. It also shows the precise quantity of the asset you hold and its current valuation. For Long positions, debt is denominated in stablecoins (e.g., USDC), while for Short positions, it is denominated in the borrowed asset (e.g., ATOM, OSMO, BTC). The interest due—accrued over a 30-day cycle—is displayed with the option to either repay it and reset the cycle or let the protocol deduct it automatically.

To help you respond to market volatility proactively, the detailed view also includes Stop Loss and Take Profit controls. These allow you to configure automated exit strategies based on specific PnL levels. You can manually set your thresholds or choose from common preset triggers to streamline your risk management workflow. When a Take Profit trigger is activated, the position is automatically closed, and the resulting assets—comprising your original collateral plus any realized gains—are transferred directly to your wallet. For Long positions, the payout is denominated in stablecoins (e.g., USDC), while for Short positions, it is denominated in the borrowed asset (e.g., ATOM, OSMO, BTC). This ensures your wallet accurately reflects the final outcome of the position, with immediate access to both the initial margin and profits in the appropriate asset

A clearly visible and color-coded health indicator reflects your position’s Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio, offering a quick visual reference of risk exposure:

🟢 Healthy means the position is well-collateralized and safe;
🟡 Moderate signals that monitoring is advised;
🔴 Risky suggests that immediate repayment may be needed to avoid liquidation.

Finally, at the bottom of the page is the Actions Log, which maintains a complete, timestamped history of all actions related to the position. This includes user-initiated transactions like repayments as well as protocol-executed events, all marked with statuses to ensure full transparency. The log serves as a clear and auditable trail of your position’s evolution over time.
