This guide explains how to withdraw your funds from the Limora matching pool.

​
Withdrawal Eligibility

You can withdraw funds that are not currently matched with active trades.

​
Withdrawal Process

1

Check Available Balance

On the Match page, view your balances: - Matched: Funds in active positions (not withdrawable) - Available: Funds you can withdraw
2

Enter Withdrawal Amount

In the withdraw section, enter the amount you want to withdraw. - Minimum: 1 USDC - Maximum: Your available balance
3

Confirm Withdrawal

Click “Withdraw” and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
4

Receive Funds

Once confirmed, USDC is transferred directly to your wallet.

​
Understanding Availability

​
Available Balance

Funds that are immediately withdrawable:

​
Matched Funds

When you match a trade, those funds are locked until:
  • The trader closes the position
  • The trader is liquidated
  • The trade expires (if applicable)
Once the trade settles, funds return to your Available balance (± P&L from the trade).

​
Partial vs. Full Withdrawal

​
Partial Withdrawal

Withdraw any amount up to your Available balance while keeping the rest deposited for matching.

​
Full Withdrawal

Withdraw everything that’s available. Note that if you have matched positions, you’ll need to wait for them to close before withdrawing those funds.

​
Withdrawal Timing

​
Withdrawal Fees

Limora does not charge a fee for withdrawals. You only pay the Base network gas fee.

​
Withdrawal Example

Example: Partial Withdrawal

Your Balances:
  • Matching Balance: 5,000 USDC
  • Matched: 3,000 USDC
  • Available: 2,000 USDC
Action: Withdraw 1,500 USDCResult:
  • Matching Balance: 3,500 USDC
  • Matched: 3,000 USDC (unchanged)
  • Available: 500 USDC
  • Wallet Balance: +1,500 USDC

​
What Happens When Trades Close?

When a trade you’ve matched closes:
  1. Settlement Calculation
  2. Funds Released
    • P&L calculated based on entry/exit prices
    • Interest added to your balance
    • Funds move from “Matched” to “Available”
  3. Example Settlements
Based on 1,000 USDC matched position

​
Exiting All Positions

If you want to fully exit Limora:
1

Stop Matching New Trades

Don’t match any new trades while you’re exiting.
2

Wait for Active Matches

Monitor your matched positions. Each will eventually close when: - Trader manually closes - Stop-loss/take-profit triggers - Trader gets liquidated
3

Withdraw Available

As funds become available, withdraw them to your wallet.
4

Final Withdrawal

Once all matches are settled, withdraw remaining balance.
You cannot force-close matched positions. You must wait for traders to close their trades or for liquidation conditions to be met.

​
Emergency Withdrawal

In certain emergency situations (smart contract issues, etc.), the protocol may enable emergency withdrawal mode that allows immediate withdrawal regardless of matched status. This is a last-resort mechanism and may result in partial fund recovery depending on circumstances.

​
Troubleshooting

All your funds are currently matched with active trades. Wait for trades to close, then you can withdraw.
  • Ensure you have ETH for gas - Try withdrawing a smaller amount - Wait a moment and try again
  • Wait for transaction confirmation - Check transaction on Basescan - Ensure you’re viewing the correct network (Base)
  • Refresh the page - Check if any trades recently closed - Verify transaction history on Basescan

​
Tax Considerations

Withdrawals may have tax implications in your jurisdiction. Keep records of: - Deposit dates and amounts - Withdrawal dates and amounts - Interest earned - P&L from matched positions
Export your transaction history from the Match History section for record-keeping.
