USDⓈ-Margined Futures Contract Specifications

USDⓈ-Margined Futures contracts on VOOX Futures are not inverse contracts. Instead, they are linear futures products that are quoted and settled in USDT - stablecoins pegged to the value of the U.S. dollar.

One of the key benefits of USD-settled contracts is that you can easily calculate your returns in fiat. This makes USDⓈ-margined contracts more intuitive.

For example, when you make 500 USDT in profit, you can easily estimate that the profit is worth approximately $500 - since the value of 1 USDT is pegged closely to 1 USD.

USDⓈ-margined contracts offer the following characteristics:

• Settlement in USDT: Contracts are denominated and settled in USDT.
• Expiration: Perpetual
• Clear pricing rules: Each USDⓈ-margined Futures contract specifies the base asset's quantity delivered for a single contract, also known as "contract unit". For instance, BTCUSDT and ETHUSDT Futures contracts represent only one unit of its respective base asset, similar to spot markets.
• Funding fee: USDⓈ-M Perpetual contracts carry a funding fee. Funding payments are transferred between traders and are charged every eight hours. Please note that this time period may vary depending on market conditions.

Minimum order notional limit rule for USDⓈ-M Futures contracts:

The minimum notional value of each order must be no less than the threshold of 5 USDT. If the order notional value is less than the set threshold (5 USDT), the order will be rejected.

For example, if the user opens an order of 0.001 BTC > 5 USDT notional value, the order can be successfully placed; if the user opens an order 0.0001 ETH < 5 USDT, the order can fail placed.

Notes:

• VOOX Futures will adjust the minimum order threshold from time to time without prior announcement. You can check more details via Trading Rules.
