# Account Value

At any stage in the epoch's life cycle, the total account value can be calculated as below:

$$
\text{Account Value} = \text{Effective Balance} - \text{Debt}  + \text{Effective profits} - \text{Loss}
$$

                                              Where Effective profits = $$a\*\text{Real Profits}$$

&#x20;                                                                           0 < a < 1          (Initially a = 0.4)

Knowing the account value, traders can decide to add or reduce to their position, as long as the account value remains higher than the initial maintenance margin in [Standard Margin](https://docs.ivx.fi/financial-model/standard-margin)
