Hi everyone,
I have 2 questions about perpetual trading:
1/ If I don't use leverage (i.e. x1) do I risk being liquidated if my trade doesn't go in the right direction?
2/ If I don't use leverage (i.e. x1) can I keep a BTC contract, how can I do this in the Spot market?
Thank you
There is no risk of being liquidated in the spot market. You own the underlying coins and hopefully keep them stored safely outside of the exchange. There is no contract that says you lose everything if the coin drops 50%. So as long as you are not actively selling your coin you are not realizing any loss. The only situation would be when the project is discontinued and removed from the exchange. You might not be able to trade anymore and the exchange liquidates any existing coins. What exactly is a BTC contract? If you are trading with x1 you should be buying bitcoins directly. It's not a contract, you own the coins and nobody can force you to liquidate your coins.
