# Create an LTV Boost Locking $JPGD can boost your position. There are several types of boosts on JPEG'd (see [Locking Mechanics](https://docs.jpegd.io/jpegd-dao/about-the-jpegd-protocol/jpegd-boosts)). [LTV boost](https://docs.jpegd.io/jpegd-dao/about-the-jpegd-protocol/jpegd-boosts/ltv-boost) allows users to increase the LTV of boosted positions up to **80% LTV** on selected collections. To enable the boost, $JPGD tokens need to be locked on a per position basis. The locks get disabled upon request, and the locked $JPGD can be withdrawn after the [withdrawal processing period](https://docs.jpegd.io/jpegd-dao/about-the-jpegd-protocol/jpegd-boosts/ltv-boost#withdrawal). Boosting is easy, check the tutorial, or follow the steps below. {% embed url="" %} ## Create LTV Boost Lock #### **Step 1:** Open up your loan dashboard and go to the borrows tab, note it's also possible to create an LTV boost from the wallet tab before doing the first borrow.

#### **Step 2:** For the selected NFTs, choose the amount of LTV boost you want to enable. The higher the boost, the more $JPGD that needs to be locked. The LTV boost configuration modal lets you determine the LTV boost amount from 0 to **20% extra LTV.** LTV Boost can be increased up to the maximum boost value after they have been first created.

## Manage your JPEG'd Boosts The Boost tab will show you the status of your boosts, as well as let you manage them. You can: * Update an LTV boost * Request an unlock to disable your active boosts (please note there is a unlock period to avoid unwanted liquidations) * Claim unlocked $JPGD

## Disabling a Boost From the Dashboard/Boosts tab, select the positions you want to disable the boost for. This will start the withdrawal processing period. The period lasts **7 Days** and can be cancelled at any time.
