# Managing Positions



Viewing Your Positions [#viewing-your-positions]

The staking dashboard shows all your positions including:

* Amount staked
* Staking type (flexible or locked)
* Start date
* Accumulated rewards
* Estimated APR

Viewing Rewards [#viewing-rewards]

The dashboard shows accumulated rewards. Rewards are calculated proportionally based on your stake percentage. If you have 1% of total staked ALKIMI, you earn 1% of all protocol fees.

Claiming Rewards [#claiming-rewards]

1. Navigate to the "Rewards" section
2. Click "Claim Rewards"
3. Confirm the transaction

Unstaking [#unstaking]

1. Find the position you want to unstake
2. Click "Unstake"
3. Confirm you want to unstake the entire position
4. Historical locked positions cannot be unstaked until unlock date
5. Approve the transaction
6. Tokens return to your wallet after confirmation

Important: Full Position Unstaking [#important-full-position-unstaking]

The staking smart contract only allows full unstaking of each position. You cannot partially unstake.

**Recommended approach:** Stake in 4-10 separate chunks rather than one large position.

Example: For 100,000 ALKIMI, create positions of 10,000-25,000 each. This way you can unstake individual positions if needed while keeping others staked.

Position Strategy Tips [#position-strategy-tips]

* Create multiple positions for flexibility
* Keep track of any locked position unlock dates
* Monitor your total staked amount vs. liquid balance
* Consider your liquidity needs when deciding position sizes
