What are futures & perpetuals?
A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price on a specific date. Traders use futures to speculate on direction, hedge portfolio risk, or gain leveraged exposure to macro moves.
Perpetual contracts (perps) have no expiry date. A funding rate keeps the contract price anchored to the spot index — longs pay shorts (or vice versa) every few hours.
Our futures platform combines traditional derivatives depth with digital-market speed — unified margin, cross-collateral, and sub-20ms matching.
| Feature | Dated future | Perpetual |
|---|---|---|
| Example | BTC Dec 2026 | BTC-PERP |
| Expiry | Settles at expiry | No expiry |
| Price anchor | Convergence to spot | Funding every 8h |
| Best for | Dated hedges | Ongoing directional trades |
Futures vs CFDs
Both offer leveraged exposure without owning the asset. Futures suit active traders seeking deep liquidity; CFDs offer broader multi-asset simplicity.
| Feature | Futures / Perps | CFDs |
|---|---|---|
| Contract type | Standardised / perpetual | OTC contract for difference |
| Expiry | Dated futures expire; perps do not | No expiry — roll manually |
| Funding / swap | Funding rate on perps (8h) | Overnight financing (swap) |
| Leverage | Up to 100x on select crypto perps | Up to 1:500 on forex CFDs |
| Best for | Crypto natives, hedgers, scalpers | Multi-asset beginners & swing traders |
| Markets | Crypto, indices, commodities | Forex, indices, stocks, commodities, crypto |
Understanding funding rates
Unlike CFD overnight swap, perpetual contracts use a funding rate exchanged directly between long and short traders — not paid to the broker.
When the perpetual trades above the spot index, longs pay shorts. When it trades below index, shorts pay longs. This keeps prices aligned.
Funding is typically settled every 8 hours. Rates are displayed before each interval so you can factor them into holding costs.

Cross & isolated margin
Cross margin
Your entire futures wallet backs all open positions. Losses on one contract can use surplus margin from another — efficient for portfolios but requires active monitoring.
Isolated margin
Risk is capped per position. Only the margin allocated to that trade is at risk. Liquidation of one position does not affect others.
Liquidation engine
Real-time mark-price liquidation with partial auto-deleveraging. Insurance fund absorbs shortfalls in extreme events.
Monitor margin before every order
Liquidation price and margin ratio are shown in the trading terminal before you submit.
