A perpetual is a derivative contract that tracks the underlying spot price of an asset like BTC or ETH but has no expiry. Instead of settling on a fixed date, it uses a small periodic payment between longs and shorts — the funding rate — to keep its price anchored close to spot.
Long profits when price rises; short profits when price falls. Both are fully tracked in the terminal.
Every funding interval, one side pays the other. We display the current estimated rate per pair.
If your position loses enough margin, it's force-closed. We show a simplified isolated-margin estimate — always use a stop-loss in live trading.
How much exposure you actually carry. 250 USDT margin at 10× is a 2,500 USDT position.
A 2% adverse move at 10× erases ~20% of your margin. Cuts both ways.
Rough isolated-margin liquidation. The terminal shows your live estimate as you change leverage.
All numbers here are reference.
This terminal is built for learning the mechanics of perpetuals — sizing positions, reading the chart, watching how leverage moves your P&L. Start with a small balance, refine your approach, and move to a live account when you're ready.
