2. Copier's margin

Margin

  • The leverage of futures transactions is represented by a margin, meaning that you do not need to pay 100% of the asset when conducting transactions. You only need to invest a smaller amount of funds at a certain rate according to the leverage of futures transactions as represented by a margin. This fund is called the margin.

Copier's margin settings

  • Fixed amount: It represents the margin cost per copy trade. (From 10-1000).
  • Total amount for copy trading: Largest trade volume for copy trading. (From 10-50000).

6. Position closing for copiers
Upon following elite traders to open positions, there are three position closing scenarios.

A. Elite trader closes a position
When the elite trader closes a position, the system will also close the position for the follower.

B. Copier decides to close a position
Copiers can close the positions in their copy trades. (Go to My copy trading page to close any position.)
 

C. The loss of current copy trades is greater than available futures assets (liquidation)
A copy trade position will be closed by the system when the current unrealized loss of the position is greater than the available assets in the copy trading account.

7. How to Set Leverage
  • Now, BlockFin supports two types of leverage settings: Copy trader's leverage and Fixed
  • When users choose a trader, they need to adjust their leverage to finish the copy. Leverage is From 1-20x.
  • Attention: Please be in accordance with the actual leverage of different trade pairs. Users can adjust parameters on my copy trading page, but adjusting leverage is not permitted if users have open positions, and subsequent adjustments to leverage will be effective from the next copy trading.
8. Available Trading Pairs for Copiers
  • Traders can select 50 trading pairs and copiers can check supported trading pairs on the traders' information page by clicking Copy Trading > All Master Traders > Copy > Statistical Data.
9. Copier’s Copy Order Limit 
  • The cost per order is 10-1000, and the total amount for copying is 10-50000. Users' copy orders must satisfy both requirements at the same time, or copy orders will fail. For example, the XRP price is 0.5 USDT, the leverage is 5, and the cost is 10. The contract size is 100 XRP. Position opening cost = Contract size * Quantity (cont) * Open price / Leverage. 10=100*quantity*0.5/5=1, so the minimum order amount is 100 XRP.
