C-Ratio Strategies

PreviousManaging RiskNextHedge your Portfolio

Please note that the Target C-Ratio is subject to change based on community feedback. For the most up to date Target C-Ratio,

Horizon Protocol offers three preset strategies for managing your Collateralization Ratio (C-Ratio), catering to different risk levels:

Conservative Strategy (Lower Risk)

  • Target C-Ratio: 1000% (Maintaining a comfortable safety margin)

  • Purpose: To maintain a safe buffer above the target C-Ratio.

  • Benefits: Lower risk of liquidation but yields fewer rewards.

  • For: Users who prefer a safer approach and don't want to monitor their positions closely.

Neutral Strategy (Moderate Risk)

  • Target C-Ratio: 800% (closer to the default)

  • Purpose: Balancing risk and rewards.

  • For: Users seeking a middle-ground approach between safety and reward maximization.

Aggressive Strategy (Higher Risk)

  • Target C-Ratio: 600% (default)

  • Purpose: To maximize rewards by staying close to the target C-Ratio.

  • Risk: Higher risk due to a smaller buffer zone before liquidation.

  • For: Users who actively manage their positions and aim for maximum rewards.

Choose a strategy based on your risk tolerance and how actively you can monitor your holdings.
