Interest rates for your Margin positions(all negative balances) are calculated on an hourly basis at the bottom of the hour. If you have borrowed for less than 1 hour, the interest rate will still be calculated as if Virtual Assets are borrowed for 1 hour.

If the daily interest rate is 0.052% per day, the hourly interest rate is 0.00216667% (Hourly Interest = Daily Interest / 24)

Interest = Borrowed Virtual Assets * (Hourly Interest Rate) * (Time in Hours)

For example:

If a user borrows 1,000 USDT at 12:05 PM and repays at 14:15 PM, the interest owed is 0.06501 USDT.

Interest = 1,000 * 0.00216667% * 3

Interest = 0.06501
