Positions and Open Orders

On the Futures trading page (PC), you can view your current positions and open orders, which display key trading data, including:

Trading Contract – The contract you are trading.
Order Direction – Long or Short.
Position Size – Calculated using the formula: Position Size = Margin × Leverage ÷ Entry Price Example: Using 1,000 USDT margin with 20× leverage to buy BTC contracts worth 10,000 USDT results in a position size of 2 BTC.
Unrealized PnL – Floating profit or loss of your current position.
Profit Rate – Percentage return of the position.
Average Entry Price – The average price at which your position was opened.
Liquidation Price – The price at which the system will automatically liquidate your position.

➡️ You can also set or modify Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) directly on this page and manage pending orders efficiently.
