6. Trading Hours

Stock Perpetual Futures have specified opening and closing hours. Please refer to the interface for details.

⚠️ Note

- During non-trading hours, cancellation of orders is allowed, but opening or closing positions as well as placing new orders or editing existing orders (price or quantity) will not be supported. If margin is insufficient due to funding fee deduction during the non-trading session, forced liquidation may still be triggered. Please check your risk in time and replenish margin. 

- Due to unstable external market sources and holidays, Stock Perpetual Futures may be temporarily suspended. The actual opening may be delayed until stable market data is received. Please refer to the trading page for actual opening times. 

- To prevent extreme market movements—such as opening gaps—in forex, commodities, stocks, and index perpetual futures, BingX has introduced an opening protection mechanism. Within the first 5 minutes after the market opens, the system will temporarily cap the Take Profit limit at 20x and automatically close positions. This helps users secure profits in times of extreme volatility. This mechanism is only effective during the first 5 minutes after opening and will return to normal afterward. It will not affect your overall trading strategy.

The “20x Take-Profit Limit” Works as Follows

The Take Profit price under this mechanism is not based on the candlestick chart price but is calculated based on the profit multiple limit of the user’s position.

Maximum Take-Profit Price = Position Margin × Price Corresponding to 20x Profit

This price is a fixed trigger level calculated directly by the system according to the rules. It does not depend on real-time filled prices or whether a candlestick chart level is reached.

*Notes:*

- The real-time margin of the position can be affected by added funds, margin adjustments, funding fees, and other factors, which can lead to changes in the maximum Take Profit price.

- Starting from 2026-01-16, the 20x maximum Take Profit limit will be removed for GOLD and SILVER.

7. Source of Price

Prices are sourced from multiple platforms including Bitget, Mexc, and ONDO (refer to actual display on the interface).

8. Additional Info

a. The funding rate mechanism for Stock Perpetual Futures is the same as for Crypto Perpetual Futures. Costs are typically settled every 4 hours between buyers and sellers (refer to actual display). If the rate is positive, longs pay shorts; if negative, shorts pay longs. See funding rate details >>

b. Due to increased uncertainty in the stock market after closure, there is a risk of price gaps upon reopening, and funding fees will still be incurred during non-trading hours. To lower your liquidation risk, please check risk before market close and add sufficient margin or partially close positions. Five minutes before close, the maintenance margin rate will increase by 2.5% on top of the current rate (e.g., from 1% to 1.025%). This will affect your existing positions, so keep a close eye on closing times and risk levels to avoid forced liquidation losses.

c. Stock Perpetual Futures also have an ADL mechanism, consistent with Crypto Perpetual Futures. For more details, please refer to >>

d. The above notes only apply to the "Stock" trading section. The "xStocks" section is excluded.

e. To ensure trading fairness and system stability, opening both long and short positions simultaneously on TradFi trading products will be prohibited before the market closes. It is recommended to arrange your trading operations in advance. Additionally, before the market closes, the system will dynamically adjust the maximum leverage for new positions. Existing positions are not affected; please refer to the actual trading prompts.

*If malicious trading behavior is detected, the platform will initiate risk control actions on the relevant account(s). Measures include, but are not limited to, deduction of abnormal profits, restriction of trading permissions, and account bans.

f. During significant macroeconomic data releases or events, financial market volatility is usually greatly increased, and there may be sharp price changes and liquidity fluctuations in a short period. To effectively control trading risk under extreme market conditions and protect users' asset security, BingX will temporarily lower the maximum available leverage for certain trading pairs in the TradFi section during relevant time windows, and will dynamically restore it depending on market conditions.

Please monitor key data and event schedules in advance, manage your positions and margin prudently, and avoid unnecessary risk exposure from extreme market volatility.

BingX will continue to monitor market dynamics and promptly adjust relevant parameters based on risk conditions. Thank you for your understanding and support.
