Do all account wallets get checked against the minimum margin requirement or just the trading one?
In other words, how much btcs would be possible to transfer into the exchange wallet
when there are an outstanding loan and a margin trading position present?
If it's not in "trading" it's not in "trading"
Which takes me to another question:
Why is this separtion needed? There should be a better solution.
If I make a margin trade with all me BTCs I can't set a "exchange stop" which safe my (real) BTCs. This is very unconvinient
The lender must be guaranteed in his loan by your collateral.
If you don't want to take risk you should only buy without using leverage.
It's a zero sum game, what you find inconvenient it's being called safety by your counterpart.
I wish I could find a way to give a free meal to everybody, but apparently there is none.
I hope that helps

I understand what you said, and it's logical.
I said "There must be another way".
"Real" BTC could be locked as long as it is required in a margin trade, so one could set a stop for the margin trade and set one for exchange a little lower.
