Terms & Concepts
  • Perpetual contract: A derivatives contract with no fixed expiry date that typically uses periodic funding payments to help keep its price aligned with the underlying asset.
  • Funding rate: A periodic payment mechanism in perpetual futures that helps keep contract prices close to the reference price of the underlying asset.
  • 20x leverage: A feature that lets traders control a position worth up to 20 times their posted collateral, increasing both potential gains and losses.
