# Funding Boosted Wallet

### Funding Boosted Wallet

Boosted positions are opened and margined through the **Boosted Wallet**, not directly from the EOA Perps balance.

In order to trade with boosted leverage, the Boosted Wallet must contain sufficient collateral.

A balance in the Boosted Wallet is required before any boosted position can be opened.

***

### How It Works

When trading standard perpetuals, margin is drawn from the Perps balance within the EOA.

When trading with boosted leverage:

* Margin is drawn exclusively from the **Boosted Wallet**
* The EOA Perps balance is not automatically used
* Collateral must be manually allocated to the Boosted Wallet

This separation ensures isolated risk management and clear accounting between standard and boosted positions.

***

### Funding the Boosted Wallet

Funds can be transferred from the Perps balance to the Boosted Wallet directly within the **Balances** tab.

**Steps:**

1. Navigate to the **Balances** tab.
2. Locate your USDC balance under Perps.
3. Select **Transfer**.
4. Enter and confirm the transfer amount.

Once completed, the transferred amount will appear in the Boosted Wallet and become available as collateral for boosted positions.

#### Collateral Requirements

Opening a boosted position requires:

* Sufficient available balance in the Boosted Wallet
* Margin that meets the selected leverage requirement

If insufficient collateral is available in the Boosted Wallet, the order will not execute.

***

#### Important Notes

* Transfers are internal and do not require an on-chain transaction.
* Funds in the Boosted Wallet are used exclusively for boosted positions.
* If the Boosted Wallet balance is zero, boosted orders cannot be placed, instead user will be prompted to transfer funds to the Boosted wallet.
* Users may transfer funds back from the Boosted Wallet to Perps at any time, provided there are no open boosted positions utilizing that collateral.

The Boosted Wallet structure ensures capital is intentionally allocated, risk is clearly compartmentalized, and leverage exposure remains fully defined per position.
