Before you open

0 ok · 5 to watch
  • Watch: Thin at this size11.2 / 32.8 bp
    At $10k entering Gate costs 32.8 bp, fee and slippage, 2.9× Arcus’s.
  • Note: Margin at max leverage$2,500 + $500
    Arcus 4x, Gate 20x. Keep about 2× this so a sharp move doesn’t liquidate one leg.
  • Watch: Payment intervals differ1h / 4h
    Payments land at different times. Close right after the slower leg pays.
    Next 24h at the current rates, on $10k a leg: −$34.01Long Arcus: 24 payments, −$25.01; short Gate: 6 payments, −$9.00.
  • Watch: Gap narrower than usual−0.432% vs −0.150%
    Less room for the price leg to pay you. If it goes back to average, the short loses.
  • Watch: Long leg is thinner$47K vs $6.0M OI
    Arcus sets your exit cost. Check its book before closing.
  • Note: No points program—
    Neither exchange runs points right now.
  • Watch: KYCArcus No · Gate Yes
    KYC before the futures account opens; unverified accounts can only withdraw and close positions.
