Safety level on Doto

Learn how margin level and Safety Levels work on Doto to monitor trading risk, avoid margin calls, and manage your trades more confidently.

Updated this week

What is the Safety Level?

The Safety Level helps you monitor your trading risk and understand how much trading power you have left.

It is based on your margin level and updates in real time.

The Safety Level in your account is shown on the Home screen when you have open trades.

If there are no open trades, the Safety Level value is not displayed.


How is the Safety Level calculated?

The Safety Level is calculated using your margin level:

Margin level = (Account value ÷ Reserved funds) × 100%

The higher your margin level, the safer your account position.

Description

Very safe

above 2,000%

Reserved funds are less than 5% of your account value.

You have enough free funds to open new trades with very low risk.

Safe

1,000–2,000%

Reserved funds are less than 10% of your account value.

You can open new trades, but keep trade volume moderate.

Reserved funds are less than 25% of your account value.

Your account is in a comfortable zone, but large trades may require additional funds.

200–400%

Your free funds are getting low.

Consider making a deposit or closing some trades.

Low

100–200%

You don’t have enough funds to cover your open trades.

Why should I know my margin level?

Your margin level shows how much risk your account can safely handle at any moment.

It helps you make better trading decisions and avoid unexpected losses.

Knowing your margin level allows you to:

✅ Control risk

You see early when your account is moving into a risky zone and can act before it becomes critical.

✅ Avoid margin calls

A low margin level means your open trades are using too much of your funds. Monitoring it helps you avoid forced trade closures.

✅ Plan trade size correctly

Margin level shows how much trading power you have left, so you can adjust position sizes instead of overloading your account.

✅ Decide when to add funds

You can clearly see when adding funds makes sense and when it’s better to reduce exposure.

✅ Trade with confidence

Understanding your margin level removes guesswork and helps you trade based on facts, not emotions.

In short: margin level = risk visibility.

The better you understand it, the more control you have over your trading.
