how to fix: code: -2019, msg: 'Margin is insufficient.' #899

Description

@solomonNSI

I am trying to open a simple short position on coin-m futures

Here's the code:
`const Binance = require('node-binance-api');

const binance = new Binance().options({
APIKEY: 'some api key',
APISECRET: 'some secrets',
'family': 4,
});

let temp = async () => {
//console.info( await binance.universalTransfer("MAIN_CMFUTURE","XRP",10) );
console.info(await binance.deliveryMarginType("XRPUSD_PERP", "CROSSED"));
console.info(await binance.deliveryLeverage("XRPUSD_PERP", 1));
console.info(await binance.deliveryMarketSell("XRPUSD_PERP", 70, { positionSide: "SHORT"}));
}

temp();
`

I have also checked the balance, here is the result:
[Object: null prototype] { asset: 'XRP', walletBalance: '104.91600000', unrealizedProfit: '0.00000000', marginBalance: '104.91600000', maintMargin: '0.00000000', initialMargin: '0.00000000', positionInitialMargin: '0.00000000', openOrderInitialMargin: '0.00000000', maxWithdrawAmount: '104.91600000', crossWalletBalance: '104.91600000', crossUnPnl: '0.00000000', availableBalance: '104.91600000', updateTime: 1696236724456 },

Why is the margin insufficient?
