To trade futures on our crypto exchange, you'll need to meet certain margin requirements. These requirements are based on the specific futures contract you want to trade and the current market conditions.
Here's a breakdown of what you need to know:
Initial Margin:
This is the amount of money you need to deposit in your account to open a futures position.
It's a percentage of the contract's notional value.
The initial margin can change based on market volatility and other factors.
Maintenance Margin:
This is the minimum amount of equity you need to maintain in your account while holding a futures position.
It's also a percentage of the contract's notional value.
If your account equity falls below the maintenance margin, you'll receive a margin call, meaning you'll need to deposit more funds to bring your equity back up to the required level.
How to Calculate Margin Requirements:
The exact margin requirements for a specific futures contract will be displayed on our exchange platform.
You can also use our margin calculator tool to estimate the initial and maintenance margin for any contract
