Isolated Margin

A margin mode where collateral is dedicated to a single position, limiting the maximum loss to only the margin allocated to that trade. Other positions and the remaining account balance are unaffected if the isolated position is liquidated. Traders use isolated margin for higher-risk trades to cap downside exposure. Most Solana perps platforms offer both cross and isolated margin options.

Estas ramas muestran qué conceptos toca este término directamente y qué existe una capa más allá de ellos.

Rama

Margin

The collateral deposited to maintain a leveraged position. Initial margin is the minimum to open a position; maintenance margin is the minimum to keep it open. If the margin ratio drops below maintenance due to unrealized losses, the position faces liquidation. Margin can be cross (shared across positions) or isolated (per-position).

Rama

Leverage

Using borrowed funds to amplify trading exposure beyond deposited capital. In perps, 10x leverage means $100 collateral controls a $1,000 position. Gains and losses are multiplied proportionally. If losses approach the collateral amount, the position is liquidated. Higher leverage increases both potential returns and liquidation risk.

Rama

Cross Margin

A margin mode where the entire account balance serves as collateral across all open positions. Unrealized profits from one position can offset losses in another, reducing overall liquidation risk. Cross margin is more capital-efficient but means a single bad position can threaten the entire account. Drift Protocol on Solana uses cross-margin by default for its perpetuals and spot margin trading.

Isolated Pools

Lending pools where risk is contained to specific asset pairs or groups, preventing a depeg or exploit in one asset from affecting the entire protocol. Each isolated pool has its own risk parameters, interest rates, and collateral factors. On Solana, MarginFi and Kamino use isolated pool architectures so that volatile or newer tokens can be listed without exposing core assets like SOL and USDC to additional risk.

DeFi

AMM (Creador de Mercado Automatizado)

A protocol that enables token swaps using algorithmic pricing against pooled liquidity instead of matching individual buyers and sellers. AMMs use mathematical formulas (typically constant product x*y=k) to determine prices based on the ratio of tokens in a liquidity pool. On Solana, major AMMs include Raydium, Orca, and Meteora.

DeFi

CLMM (Concentrated Liquidity Market Maker)

An AMM design where liquidity providers concentrate their capital within specific price ranges instead of across the full 0-to-infinity range. CLMMs dramatically improve capital efficiency—LPs earn more fees per dollar deposited within their active range. If the price moves outside the range, the position becomes inactive. Orca Whirlpools and Raydium CLMM are leading implementations on Solana.

DeFi

Pool de Liquidez

A smart-contract-held reserve of two or more tokens that enables trading via an AMM. Users deposit token pairs in specified ratios to become liquidity providers and earn trading fees. Pools are identified by their token pair and fee tier. Pool depth (total value locked) determines price impact for trades.

DeFi

LP Token

A token issued to liquidity providers representing their proportional share of a pool's reserves and accrued fees. LP tokens can be burned to withdraw the underlying assets. The value of LP tokens changes as the pool's token ratios shift and fees accumulate. LP tokens are often stakeable in yield farming programs for additional rewards.
