What are futures?

Futures, also called futures contracts, are agreements to buy or sell currencies, commodities, or other financial instruments at a predetermined price and time and can be cash settled or physically settled. When you buy or sell a crypto futures contract, you are interacting with a contract that represents the asset rather than the asset itself. Once the contract is exercised, the exchange of the actual asset occurs.

Perpetual contracts are similar to futures contracts but don’t have an expiration date. This means you can hold a position in a perpetual contract for as long as you’d like. The price of a perpetual contract is based on an underlying index price which means that perpetual contracts are often traded at a price that is similar to spot markets.

What are the benefits of trading futures?

Hedging: Short or go long in a futures contract to hedge against adverse price movements of the underlying assetPrice speculation: Futures contracts allow you to speculate on the direction of the underlying asset’s priceTrade with 100x leverage: You don’t need to put up 100% of the contract’s value amount when trading
