0 ok · 5 to watch
  • Watch: Thin at this size14.4 / 210.7 bp
    At $10k entering HTX costs 210.7 bp, fee and slippage, 14.6× Arcus’s.
  • Note: Margin at max leverage$2,500 + $500
    Arcus 4x, HTX 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: −$10.43Long Arcus: 24 payments, −$13.43; short HTX: 6 payments, +$3.00.
  • Watch: Gap narrower than usual−0.193% vs −0.121%
    Less room for the price leg to pay you. If it goes back to average, the short loses.
  • Watch: Long leg is thinner$50K vs $111K OI
    Arcus sets your exit cost. Check its book before closing.
  • Note: No points program—
    Neither exchange runs points right now.
  • Watch: KYCArcus No · HTX Limited
    No ID for accounts opened since 2026-03-30: futures up to 5x and no API trading; more leverage and the API need level-2 KYC.
