### Position Overview

This section keeps all your trading data front and center. Here, you can check your current positions, monitor active orders, and dive into your trade, order, and transaction history. You’ll also see detailed metrics like unrealized PnL, estimated liquidation price, and margin ratio. Need to close a position? You can do that right from this section with either a market or limit order.

### Margin Ratio Panel

The margin ratio panel helps you keep tabs on your account health. It shows your current margin ratio, maintenance margin, and account equity, calculated as Account equity + Unrealized PnL. If your margin ratio hits 100%, your positions will be liquidated—so it’s important to keep an eye on this panel.
