**MMR** (Maintenance Margin Ratio) is the minimum margin a position must hold to avoid liquidation. Once effective leverage exceeds **Liq. Leverage** (1 / MMR), the position becomes eligible for partial liquidation — only the amount needed to restore it to max initial leverage is closed, not the whole position. See [Margin](/perpetuals/architecture/margin.md) and [Liquidations](/perpetuals/architecture/liquidations.md) for details. Parameters are governance-configurable with an on-chain time delay.

### About XAUT/USD

**XAUT/USD** references [Tether Gold (XAUT)](https://gold.tether.to/), a tokenized gold product backed 1:1 by physical gold held in Swiss vaults. Because XAUT is an ERC-20 token with continuous on-chain liquidity, its oracle feed is always available — making it a 24/7 market despite tracking the price of a physical commodity.

This is a key distinction from raw commodity perpetuals like XAG/USD (Silver), which follow exchange session hours because their oracle feeds reflect real-world commodity exchange pricing.
