    BYDFi, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, sets the minimum margin requirement for trading e-mini contracts at 5%. This means that you need to have at least 5% of the total contract value in your trading account to open and maintain a position. For example, if the contract value is $10,000, you would need to have a minimum of $500 in your account. It's important to note that the margin requirement can vary between different exchanges, so it's always a good idea to check with your specific trading platform for their minimum margin requirements.
