2 ok · 2 to watch
  • Watch: Thin at this size19.4 / 30.3 bp
    At $10k entering Bitget costs 30.3 bp, fee and slippage, 1.6× Binance’s.
  • Note: Margin at max leverage$500 + $500
    Binance 20x, Bitget 20x. Keep about 2× this so a sharp move doesn’t liquidate one leg.
  • OK: Same payment interval4h / 4h
    Both legs pay at the same time.
    Next 24h at the current rates, on $10k a leg: −$1.08Long Binance: 6 payments, −$3.00; short Bitget: 6 payments, +$1.92.
  • OK: Entry gap works for you−0.036% vs −0.197%
    You short the dearer leg. If the gap goes back to average, the short gains.
  • Note: Short leg is thinner$1.4M vs $6.5M OI
    Both legs are deep; Bitget is the smaller one.
  • Note: No points program—
    Neither exchange runs points right now.
  • Watch: KYCBinance Yes · Bitget Yes
    Verified KYC to deposit or trade; futures accounts under 30 days old are capped at 20x.
