  • You can adjust the position size in the unit of the asset that you’re trading (i.e. BTC, ETH, CRO, and etc.)

  • As you adjust the position size, the collateral amount will be automatically adjusted to meet the required amount

  1. Set Take Profit/Stop Loss Orders (TP/SL)

Take Profit

  • For Leverage <50x, the maximum level is 550%

  • For Leverage >=50x, the maximum level is 350%

  • Default is set to be 100%

Stop Loss

  • Closing a position automatically and minimizing losses when the market price reaches a specified price level

  • TP/SL orders cannot be canceled once created. You can only edit the order.

  1. Set the desired Slippage

  • Set the maximum discrepancy between the expected price of a trade and the price at which the trade is executed

  • Not applicable to Limit Order

  1. Pay Fees

  • Open Fee and Execution Fee are charged when opening positions

  • Fees are deducted from your wallet together with the collateral

  • There is no Open Fee for positions with 500x, 750x, 1000x Leverage

  • See Fees for more information

Note that positions under the same trading pair will be created as individual positions upon each position creation. They will not be unified.

Once the maximum open interest (OI) is reached for Long and Short Positions respectively for a trading pair, opening position in that direction will be temporarily suspended. This helps to

  • prevent excessive losses in MLP in case of adverse market movements

  • maintain market stability by preventing the accumulation of disproportionately large positions that could impact market dynamics
