# Withdraw YT

> Withdraw YT tokens from a yield position

The `ixWithdrawYt` method on the `YtPosition` class creates a transaction instruction that withdraws YT tokens from the yield position back to the user's token account.

## Usage

```typescript theme={null}
import { Vault, YtPosition, LOCAL_ENV } from "@exponent-labs/exponent-sdk";
import { Connection, Transaction, sendAndConfirmTransaction } from "@solana/web3.js";

const connection = new Connection("https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com");
const vault = await Vault.load(LOCAL_ENV, connection, vaultAddress);
const ytPosition = await YtPosition.loadByOwner(LOCAL_ENV, connection, wallet.publicKey, vault);

const ix = ytPosition.ixWithdrawYt({
  amount: 1_000_000n,
});

const tx = new Transaction().add(ix);
const signature = await sendAndConfirmTransaction(connection, tx, [wallet]);
```

<Tip>
  Stage and collect any accrued yield before withdrawing YT. Withdrawing reduces your YT balance, which affects future yield accrual.
