Taking BTC contract as an example, the BTC adjustment factors tiers are laid out as below:
① If a user chooses 10x leverage ratio:
With long positions of 1200 lots and short positions of 2000 lots of BTC weekly contracts;
The net position should be 800 lots ( 1 BTC contract = 100 usd/lot ) ;
Corresponds to adjustment factor of 5%.
② If a user chooses 20x leverage ratio:
Hold long positions of 1000 lots and short positions of 4000 lots of BTC weekly contracts; long positions of 8000 lots and short positions of 5000 lots of BTC biweekly contracts; long positions of 5000 lots and short positions of 0 lots of BTC quarterly contracts; long positions of 3000 lots and short positions of 3000 lots of BTC biquarterly contracts;
The corresponding net position should be: 11000 lots = 3000 + 3000 + 5000 + 0
Weekly contracts of 3000 lots = ∣ 1000 - 4000 ∣
Biweekly contracts of 3000 lots = ∣ 8000 - 5000 ∣
Quarterly contracts of 5000 lots = ∣ 5000 - 0 ∣
Biquarterly contracts of 0 lots = ∣ 3000 - 3000 ∣
* ( 1 BTC contract = 100 usd/lot ) ;
Corresponds to adjustment factor of 28%.
