Glossary
Isolated margin risks only the collateral assigned to one position; cross margin shares the whole account balance.
In short
In isolated margin, a position's losses are bounded by the margin allocated to it. In cross margin, every position draws on the same account balance, so one bad position can liquidate the others.
Cross margin is more capital-efficient and more contagious. A single leader's outsized loss in a cross-margined account can force liquidation of positions that were performing fine.
Sub-account separation provides a stronger version of the same containment logic at the account level: a leader's failure is bounded by that leader's sub-account.
Questions
Isolated bounds the loss per position; cross uses capital more efficiently. They trade containment against efficiency.
No. It bounds where the loss can spread, not whether it happens.
