Advanced setup for Bitcoin/Ethereum-based trading setup outside the European Union

Portfolio Margin

Important Note For All Users: We trade USDT-settled futures offers as they offer the broadest tradable universe. While profits are realized in USDT, positive weekly profits are converted into BTC or ETH to accumulate them over time. This setup enables both the broadest tradable universe while taking advantage of the potential long-term collateral appreciation of BTC and ETH.

Portfolio Margin Advantages: Compared to "Classic Futures Mode", activating "Portfolio Margin" will enable you to not be forced to have auto-exchange on your potential negative USD balances. This avoids extra fees from these automatic conversions.
