Margin and Leverage

Minimum Margin

$10 USDC

Maximum Leverage

Up to 10x (varies by market)

Position Size

Margin × Leverage
Higher leverage means higher potential returns, but also faster liquidation if the market moves against you.
Leverage$1,000 MarginApprox. Move to Liquidation
2x$2,000 position~27% adverse move
5x$5,000 position~11% adverse move
10x$10,000 position~5.5% adverse move
At 10x leverage, even small market movements can trigger liquidation. Make sure you understand the risks before using high leverage.

No performance fee if you close at a loss. You only pay when you win.

Longs and Shorts

Long (YES)

You profit when the probability goes up.
  • Entry at 40%, exit at 50% = profit
  • Entry at 40%, exit at 30% = loss

Short (NO)

You profit when the probability goes down.
  • Entry at 60%, exit at 50% = profit
  • Entry at 60%, exit at 70% = loss
Both directions work the same way mechanically. You’re always trading the market price you see.
