A Perpetual Contract is a type of derivative contract with no expiration date. This makes it a preferred tool for traders wishing to take long or short positions without worrying about contract expiration or rollover dates.
Perpetual contracts allow traders to speculate on the price movements of Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other major digital assets with the advantage of continuous exposure.
Key Features:
No Expiration Date: Unlike traditional futures, perpetual contracts do not have a settlement date. You can hold a position indefinitely as long as you maintain the margin requirements.
Leveraged Trading: OSL Global allows users to trade perpetual contracts with leverage (currently up to 0 - 10x). This means you can control a larger position value with a smaller initial capital.
Risk Warning: Leverage can amplify both gains and losses. Please trade cautiously.
Funding Rate: This is a mechanism unique to perpetual contracts used to tether the contract price to the spot price. Through the exchange of payments between long and short parties, it ensures the contract price closely tracks the underlying asset's spot price.
