Dear Traders,
📢 Understanding Maintenance Margin in Risk Tiers 📢
Maintenance margin is crucial in leveraged trading, It’s the minimum capital needed to keep a trading position open, especially important during market downturns.
At Bybit, we employ unique calculations for maintenance margin in risk tiers to enhance user experience and risk management. Learn how Bybit's maintenance margin calculation in risk tiers differs from other exchanges: a cumulative approach that requires less maintenance margin.

DCP (Disconnect Cancel All) will soon support Spot in addition to Contracts. As a result, Bybit will make the following API changes.
Before:
1. Get Account Info returns DCP configuration (Options), fields dcpStatus and timeWindow.
2. Set Disconnect Cancel All only supports Options.
After:
1. The Get Account Info field dcpStatus is always set to OFF and timeWindow is always set to 0.
2. A new endpoint released to query the DCP configuration: Get DCP Info. Please read the instructions carefully.
3. You can set timeWindow for each product with Set Disconnect Cancel All endpoint. A new request parameter, product, that can have the following values: SPOT, DERIVATIVES and OPTIONS (default). New error (3500716, "DCP of this UID is inactive") occurs when using not configured master account, or sub account calls the api or setting not configured product.
Make sure you submit the master account to INS manager to enable DCP on the backend first.
Scope:
* Once the master account has enabled DCP, all its subaccounts will have the same DCP by default;
* DCP is only triggered for UTA account (USDT, USDC Perp, USDC Futures, Spot and Options); classic account and inverse contract orders will not be cancelled when disconnected.
* Only the master account can call Get DCP Info and Set Disconnect Cancel All.
The above change will be implemented at 8am UTC, 4 June 2024.
