# Dynamic Leverage Framework

The maximum leverage offered for any market is not static; it is recalculated continuously based on two independent risk factors. The max leverage&#x20;

&#x20;      ![](/files/vbhGATW9kyyq9Vi6ziDZ)

&#x20;    is the minimum of:

The Volatility Cap:\
&#x20;     ![](/files/8sCz1Rz5bFKS4sXWHle9)

A per-market limit calculated from the historical volatility of the underlying rate. It ensures a trader's margin can cover a worst-case (99% VaR) move.

The Liquidity Cap: \
&#x20;       ![](/files/qKVuzD7oMVOusxn9prLl)\
A platform-wide limit that ensures the protocol's total loss-absorption capacity (LP Vault + Insurance Fund) is sufficient to cover an aggregate worst-case loss across all open positions.

This dual-cap system ensures that leverage is extended responsibly, aligning risk with the protocol's real-time capacity.
