Contract Trading Margin Trading Mechanism

• Leverage: Supports up to 20x margin trading, beginners can start from 5x or 10x.
• Margin Mode: It is divided into two types, isolated and cross, where isolated can manage the risk of each position separately; cross uses the account balance as margin.
• Funding Rate: Settled every 8 hours. When the rate is positive, longs pay shorts, and vice versa.

Opening and Stop Loss Strategy

1. Staggered entry: You can divide the expected investment funds into 3 batches, opening positions during pullbacks or breaks of key support levels, thereby reducing the concentrated risk of a one-time purchase.
2. Stop Loss Setting: It is recommended to set the stop loss point 2-3% below the entry price and strictly adhere to it to avoid emotional trading.
3. Take Profit Plan: You can set the first take profit level at a price increase of 4-5%. After securing profits, you can try to move the stop loss to the breakeven point to protect the minimum profit.

Notice and Risk Warning

• High Leverage Risk: While leverage amplifies profits, it also amplifies losses, so beginners should control the leverage multiple.
• Liquidation Risk: When the margin rate falls below the liquidation line, the position will be forcibly liquidated.
• Liquidity risk: Extreme market conditions may lead to slippage or inability to execute at the planned price.
• Platform fees: Pay attention to the changes in opening and closing transaction fees and funding rates to avoid frequent fees eroding profits.
