We are excited to announce the launch of our new Unified Futures Wallet, a significant upgrade designed to streamline and enhance your trading experience. This upgrade aims to consolidate all your futures trading activities into a single, unified wallet, offering a more efficient and user-friendly platform.
Why Should You Upgrade to the Unified Futures Wallet?
The primary objective of the Unified Futures Wallet upgrade is to simplify the management of your futures trades by merging all activities into one centralized location. By closing existing Isolated Futures Wallets, we ensure that all your assets and trading activities are consolidated into the new wallet. This transition not only improves efficiency but also enhances the overall user experience. Advanced traders will appreciate the improved risk management capabilities, though the decision to upgrade remains entirely up to you.
What New Features Will Be Available?
After upgrading to the Unified Futures Wallet, you will gain access to several new features:
- Isolated Margin Mode: Manage your trades with greater precision and control.
- Hedge and Multiple Position Mode with Isolated Position: Optimize your trading strategies with advanced position management capabilities.
Important Information for API Users
If you are an API user, it is crucial to review all API changes before upgrading. Once the upgrade is complete, the latest API endpoints will be used immediately. Ensure that your API endpoint has been updated according to the latest API changes. For detailed information, refer to the API change log.
