Before you open

1 ok · 5 to watch
  • Watch: Thin at this size408.9 / 15.2 bp
    At $10k Gate’s book costs 408.9 bp to enter, 27.0× Lighter’s.
  • Note: Margin at max leverage$1,000 + $2,000
    Gate 10x, Lighter 5x. Keep about 2× this so a sharp move doesn’t liquidate one leg.
  • Watch: Payment intervals differ8h / 1h
    Payments land at different times. Close right after the slower leg pays.
    Next 24h at the current rates, on $10k a leg: −$6.48Long Gate: 3 payments, $0.00; short Lighter: 24 payments, −$6.48.
  • Watch: Gap narrower than usual−0.200% vs +1.242%
    Less room for the price leg to pay you. If it goes back to average, the short loses.
  • Watch: Short leg is thinner$110K vs $597K OI
    Lighter sets your exit cost. Check its book before closing.
  • OK: Points on a legLighter Season 3
    Volume here counts toward the points program.
  • Watch: KYCGate Yes · Lighter No
    KYC before the futures account opens; unverified accounts can only withdraw and close positions.
