Terms & Concepts
  • Perpetual Contract: A type of futures contract without an expiry date, allowing traders to hold positions indefinitely while paying or receiving funding fees.
  • USDT Settlement: Perpetual contract settlements denominated in Tether (USDT), a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar.
  • Leverage: A trading mechanism that enables investors to control a larger position than their capital would otherwise allow, magnifying both gains and losses.
