LIVEDifference between Single-Assets and Multi-Assets mode: Explained
The main difference between single-asset and multi-asset mode lies in the way margin is used for trading.
Single-Asset Mode: Margin is specific to each trading pair. For example, if you want to trade BTC/USDT, you need to deposit USDT as margin. Similarly, for ETH/BUSD, you need BUSD as margin. Profits and losses are also calculated for each trading pair separately. This mode is suitable for traders with focused strategies on specific pairs.
Multi-Asset Mode: Margin is shared across all #USDT-margined and #BUSD-margined contracts. This means you can use any supported asset (BTC, ETH, BNB, etc.) as margin for any trading pair. Profits and losses from different positions are netted, meaning gains from one position can offset losses in another. This can help improve capital efficiency and reduce the risk of liquidation. This mode is suitable for traders with diversified portfolios or those who want to hedge their positions.
