Futures trading is a type of trading that allows users to profit from the price movements of digital assets. Unlike spot trading, futures trading does not require users to directly hold the underlying assets. Instead, users trade contracts rather than buying or selling the assets themselves. Based on market conditions, users can choose to go long or short and use leverage to improve capital efficiency.
Key Features of Futures Trading
1. Two-Way Trading
Users can participate in the market regardless of whether prices rise or fall.
2. Leverage Trading
Futures trading supports leverage, allowing users to control larger positions with a smaller amount of margin.
For example, with 10x leverage, a user only needs 100 USDT in margin to open a position worth 1,000 USDT.
3. No Need to Hold Spot Assets
In futures trading, users do not need to purchase or hold the corresponding spot assets in advance. Instead, they can participate in price movements by depositing margin.
