​How To Set Leverage On Coinrule

On futures, Coinrule allows you to trade one coin per rule. This is to prevent your rule opening trades on several different coins and drastically increasing your exposure to the market when using leverage.

How To Set Leverage on Binance Futures

Traders can now conveniently choose their desired leverage level, ranging from 1x to 100x, when trading on Binance Futures.

Coinrule has now integrated support for USD amount when trading futures. This gives users the ability to choose between specifying their trades in terms of a USD amount or number of contracts rather than relying solely on the traditional method of using the number of contracts. This aims to provide traders with more flexibility and convenience in executing their trading strategies. Read more about how

How to trade with "USD Amount":

1. Log in to your Coinrule account.

2. Navigate to the Rule page and select your connected futures exchange

3. When creating or editing a rule, you will now see an option to select either "USD amount" or "Number of contracts" as the quantity type for your trades.

4. Select the "USD amount" option.

5. Enter the desired dollar amount you wish to allocate to the trade.

6. Coinrule will automatically calculate the corresponding number of contracts based on the current market price and contract specifications.

7. Customize your rule's conditions, actions, and any additional parameters as needed.

8. Save your rule and launch it to start trading based on the specified USD amount.

Important Tip: When closing a position, users have the option to choose from percentage (%), USD amount or contracts.

Alternatively, to set leverage using number of contracts and to figure out how many contracts you want to Long / Short, use this equation:

Position Size / Price = Number of Contracts

Using ETH as an example, If you were wanting to allocate $100 per trade you would do the calculation 100 ($100 you are allocating) / 1848 (Price of ETH) = 0.0541 Contracts.

When you use leverage this number will change as your position size will be multiplied by the amount of leverage you are using. For example, you have $100 of margin (your own capital you put up as collateral) and you use 10x leverage. 100 * 10 = $1,000 (This is your new position size).

The calculation will then be 1,000 / 1848 = 0.541 contracts as shown in the example:

​Execution of Trades in Isolated Mode on Binance Futures

In isolated margin, investors decide how much funds to allocate as collateral for a specific position, and the rest of the account balances are not affected by this trade.
​
Trades are now executed in Isolated mode on Binance Futures which results in each trade’s margin being isolated and only enables this amount to be lost if your liquidation level is reached. Your liquidation level will be higher than “cross”, but only the margin you have allocated for each trade is at risk.

Important: Binance Futures has recently introduced a new feature for leverage trading. This feature impacts the manner in which leverage is set for newly created futures accounts and is meant to make the process more user-friendly and convenient.

When opening a new futures account on Binance, you'll be prompted to select a "Default Leverage" for your account. You can choose from the provided options: 5x or 20x. Alternatively, you can also opt for a custom leverage, where you can set a 10x leverage if that suits your trading style and risk appetite. The chosen default leverage will apply across all assets in your futures account.

It is important to note that this feature currently only applies to new futures accounts. Existing Binance Futures accounts are not automatically subject to these default leverage settings. If you already have a futures account with Binance, you will need to continue setting your leverage manually for each asset.

Traders can now conveniently choose their desired leverage level, ranging from 1x to 100x, when trading futures on KuCoin Futures.
