- A warning that your margin level is approaching liquidation (Correct answer)
- An automatic profit withdrawal

Correct answer: A warning that your margin level is approaching liquidation
A margin call alerts the trader that the margin level is nearing the liquidation threshold and more collateral may be needed.

- Add more collateral or repay part of the loan (Correct answer)

Depositing additional funds or repaying borrowed amounts raises the margin level away from liquidation.

- A liquidation fee in addition to closing the position (Correct answer)

Forced liquidations incur a liquidation fee on top of closing the borrowed position.

- Only the collateral assigned to that isolated pair (Correct answer)
