Advantages of USDT-Margined Futures Contracts
USDT-Margined contracts are linear futures quoted and settled in USDT. One of the key benefits of USDT settlement is that you can easily calculate your returns in fiat. This makes USDT-Margined contracts more intuitive.
For example, when you make 500 USDT in profit, you can easily estimate that the profit is worth approximately $500 USDT- since the value of 1 USDT is pegged closely to 1 USD.
Additionally, a universal settlement currency, such as USDT, provides more flexibility. You can use the same settlement currency across various futures contracts (i.e., BTC, ETH, XRP, etc.). This eliminates the need to buy the underlying coins to fund future positions. As such, you will not incur excessive fees as there is no additional conversion required when trading with USDT.
In periods of high volatility, USDT-Margined contracts can help reduce the risk of large price swings. Thus, you do not need to worry about hedging their underlying collateral exposure.
Minimum Order Notional Limit Rule for USDT-Margined Futures Contracts
The minimum notional value of each order must be no less than the threshold of 0.001 BTC. If the order notional value is less than the set threshold (0.001 BTC x price), it will be rejected.
For example, if the user opens an order of 0.001 BTC notional value, the order can be successfully placed; if the user opens an order < 0.001 BTC notional value, the order will be rejected.
Please note: OrangeX Futures may adjust the minimum order threshold periodically without prior notice, and users can refer to the API for details.
