To maintain decent money management, you must understand what Deposit Size or margin and borrowed assets amount you can operate. As you might have guessed, the Sell amount comprises the deposit you wish to lock as a margin from your balance and the borrowed assets from the Credit Bucket. At the same time, it depends on the leverage you are going to use. Simply put:

Order Size (Sell amount) = Deposit Size x Leverage

To set the Deposit Size, just enter the amount you are ready to spend in the respective field. Under the Deposit Size field, you may select the balance source - Wallet or Account. Wallet is the balance in your Web3 wallet connected to Primex. And Account is your Trader Balance in the Primex protocol.

Note that in the Deposit Size field, you can set an asset different from the borrowed one by selecting it in the asset drop-down. The asset you choose will be then swapped to the borrowed asset with the DEX option of your choice.
