FAQ on Guaranteed Stop-Loss

When you place a Guaranteed SL order, your stop-loss is guaranteed to execute at the trigger price you specify. This helps cap maximum losses and effectively eliminates slippage risk.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxussw9uNfT19JldDKXuMU5Lef"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-B4ntdzujdoJQt1xKd4xuYcugsDb"><strong>2.

A regular stop-loss is typically executed at market price once triggered. During periods of high volatility, significant slippage may occur, causing the final fill price to deviate from your intended stop price. A guaranteed SL ensures execution at the specified trigger price regardless of market conditions, providing a more stable and predictable exit.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfgfG75axujRtCxM6fYrgQd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-NuqhdnBgYo9uAcxCPb7udxJ3suh"><strong>3.

When the market trend reverses and pulls back, the trailing stop order submits the trader's configured order to the market.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus796M7FxeF0MBjnIUD7rVFg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrhnxXDG6EWGwZ21IMHCBeg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">As the price moves in a favorable direction, the trailing stop order adjusts accordingly. As long as the price continues to move favorably, the trigger price will follow, helping users lock in profits while riding the trend. If the price moves in the opposite direction by a specified percentage, the system automatically submits a market order to reduce or close the position. This helps limit losses and protect gains during unfavorable market movements.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus1ytrm9QXSNPuItzIQ3kizg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusugyLovqehKNuekA0n4IHt4"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A key feature that distinguishes a trailing stop order from a standard limit order is that the trigger price never moves in the opposite direction.

FAQ on Auto-Deleveraging (ADL)

<div data-page-id="JvsqdVGOpoKgz4xNegkuJcdysIf" data-lark-html-role="root" data-docx-has-block-data="true"><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusZeUDPL9F3pcCznjbgnDlwc"><strong>1. What Is Auto-Deleveraging (ADL)?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus5rujMQIRCeXzs3426vprLb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfga8LXs5RAIFZKfpHcs9Ze"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Auto-Deleveraging (ADL) is an important risk control mechanism in cryptocurrency Futures trading. When the market experiences extreme volatility, or when force majeure events cause the platform's risk reserve to become insufficient or decline rapidly, the system will trigger the ADL mechanism to control overall risk.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-R4KbdOZsCokMjMxddjluymbRsWf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-M8FrdWcKZoG6H1xNVI0uL3vsshg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">At its core, ADL is a counterparty position reduction mechanism. Based on traders' leverage levels and profit performance, the system ranks positions according to predefined rules and prioritizes accounts with higher leverage and higher profits for automatic position reduction. This helps ensure overall fund security and market stability on the platform.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusibu7CGiHW1gHY6foKCrRYf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-TLWVd5vYmo9abQxlpgGuL7WEs9e"><strong>2.

The system first calculates a PNL ranking based on profit performance and effective leverage (PNL refers to profit and loss). Traders with more aggressive strategies and higher profits are ranked higher and are more likely to be selected by the ADL mechanism.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFrATS4KEe0J2gIklpjmQkg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-A5nkdkv7FoPGbyxSfqnuuiAfsee"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Once ADL is triggered, the system automatically identifies counterparty accounts with higher PNL rankings and executes direct trades with them at the bankruptcy price, thereby completing the automatic deleveraging process. This process is fully automated and does not require any manual intervention.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZFn3vbUVYignWiwGeuwsfb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-Cx02dlEmwoCE96x4sRKuN7Mxste"><strong>3.

FAQ on Guaranteed Stop-Loss

When you place a Guaranteed SL order, your stop-loss is guaranteed to execute at the trigger price you specify. This helps cap maximum losses and effectively eliminates slippage risk.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxussw9uNfT19JldDKXuMU5Lef"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-B4ntdzujdoJQt1xKd4xuYcugsDb"><strong>2.

A regular stop-loss is typically executed at market price once triggered. During periods of high volatility, significant slippage may occur, causing the final fill price to deviate from your intended stop price. A guaranteed SL ensures execution at the specified trigger price regardless of market conditions, providing a more stable and predictable exit.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfgfG75axujRtCxM6fYrgQd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-NuqhdnBgYo9uAcxCPb7udxJ3suh"><strong>3.

What is a trailing stop order?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZ9ivl55Fyb27u0MohOuE9b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusJYZ9cX1xf0BYUEYcgBM7kc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A trailing stop order is a strategic order that tracks the market price, allowing users to preset an order within a specific price range defined by a percentage or a fixed value relative to the market price during volatility. When the market trend reverses and pulls back, the trailing stop order submits the trader's configured order to the market.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus796M7FxeF0MBjnIUD7rVFg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrhnxXDG6EWGwZ21IMHCBeg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">As the price moves in a favorable direction, the trailing stop order adjusts accordingly. As long as the price continues to move favorably, the trigger price will follow, helping users lock in profits while riding the trend. If the price moves in the opposite direction by a specified percentage, the system automatically submits a market order to reduce or close the position. This helps limit losses and protect gains during unfavorable market movements.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus1ytrm9QXSNPuItzIQ3kizg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusugyLovqehKNuekA0n4IHt4"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A key feature that distinguishes a trailing stop order from a standard limit order is that the trigger price never moves in the opposite direction.

They enable traders to dynamically adjust the trigger price during volatile market conditions, allowing them to maximize profits in favorable trends while effectively controlling losses in unfavorable ones.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusE1pI0LKgnjsTbmiaegaX8g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9Hy2EUPJGy87JpVHXzKESb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The main disadvantage is that due to the high volatility of the cryptocurrency market, setting the appropriate trail variance can be challenging. If set too tight, normal market fluctuations may trigger the order prematurely, causing you to exit the position too early and miss out on further potential profits. If set too wide, the order may fail to trigger in time during a reversal, resulting in missed opportunities to lock in profits or limit losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslffAu10p46qTeAVSLlZJ4c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusc5eQyzmgnxRDlXejHE8a6c"><strong>7.

FAQ on Auto-Deleveraging (ADL)

<div data-page-id="JvsqdVGOpoKgz4xNegkuJcdysIf" data-lark-html-role="root" data-docx-has-block-data="true"><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusZeUDPL9F3pcCznjbgnDlwc"><strong>1. What Is Auto-Deleveraging (ADL)?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus5rujMQIRCeXzs3426vprLb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfga8LXs5RAIFZKfpHcs9Ze"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Auto-Deleveraging (ADL) is an important risk control mechanism in cryptocurrency Futures trading. When the market experiences extreme volatility, or when force majeure events cause the platform's risk reserve to become insufficient or decline rapidly, the system will trigger the ADL mechanism to control overall risk.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-R4KbdOZsCokMjMxddjluymbRsWf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-M8FrdWcKZoG6H1xNVI0uL3vsshg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">At its core, ADL is a counterparty position reduction mechanism. Based on traders' leverage levels and profit performance, the system ranks positions according to predefined rules and prioritizes accounts with higher leverage and higher profits for automatic position reduction. This helps ensure overall fund security and market stability on the platform.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusibu7CGiHW1gHY6foKCrRYf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-TLWVd5vYmo9abQxlpgGuL7WEs9e"><strong>2.

The system first calculates a PNL ranking based on profit performance and effective leverage (PNL refers to profit and loss). Traders with more aggressive strategies and higher profits are ranked higher and are more likely to be selected by the ADL mechanism.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFrATS4KEe0J2gIklpjmQkg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-A5nkdkv7FoPGbyxSfqnuuiAfsee"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Once ADL is triggered, the system automatically identifies counterparty accounts with higher PNL rankings and executes direct trades with them at the bankruptcy price, thereby completing the automatic deleveraging process. This process is fully automated and does not require any manual intervention.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZFn3vbUVYignWiwGeuwsfb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-Cx02dlEmwoCE96x4sRKuN7Mxste"><strong>3.
