Similarities Between Futures and Spot Trading
On the LBank platform, futures trading pairs closely align with spot trading pairs in pricing and settlement methods, following similar market rules and trading logic. This allows users to quickly adapt to futures trading within a familiar framework, enabling both beginners and experienced traders to leverage their spot trading experience for seamless futures trading.
Order Notional Value Requirement
To ensure trading efficiency and market stability, LBank sets a minimum notional value requirement of 5 USDT for each order. Orders must meet or exceed this value to be successfully placed.
Examples:
-
If a user opens a position for 0.001 BTC and its notional value exceeds 5 USDT, the order can be submitted successfully.
-
If a user attempts to open a position for 1 TRX with a notional value below 5 USDT, the order will be rejected by the system.
⚠️ This rule helps regulate trading behavior, minimizes the impact of low-value orders on market liquidity, and protects users from unnecessary trading costs.
Traditional Pricing Method
LBank’s futures trading pairs currently use a traditional pricing method, not inverse futures. This pricing approach aligns with the spot market’s mechanism, ensuring users can intuitively understand the value and risks of futures contracts. Please review the relevant rules and pricing logic carefully before participating in futures trading to make informed trading decisions.
