12. Does Liquidation Shield charge a fee?
Liquidation Shield currently does not charge a separate feature fee.
However, funding fees generated during the Liquidation Shield lock period will accumulate normally and will be settled when the user unlocks or closes the position. If accumulated funding fees cause the margin to become insufficient to maintain the position, the system will process the position according to the platform’s liquidation rules.
13. Does Profit Shield charge a fee?
Yes.
Profit Shield fees consist of two parts:
Shield fee;
Usage fee.
The shield fee is calculated based on the locked profit amount and the current shield fee rate.
The usage fee is a one-time fee. The current usage fee rate is 2% of the position margin.
14. Is the Profit Shield usage fee charged daily?
No.
The Profit Shield usage fee is not a daily rate. It is charged once.
Calculation formula:
Usage Fee = Position Margin × 2%
The usage fee will be deducted once during Profit Shield position closing settlement.
15. How is the Profit Shield shield fee calculated?
The shield fee is calculated based on the locked profit amount at the time the user activates or updates Profit Shield.
Calculation formula:
Shield Fee = Locked Profit Amount × Current Shield Fee Rate
Example:
If the user locks in 1,000 USDT profit when activating Profit Shield, and the current shield fee rate is 8%, then:
Shield Fee = 1,000 × 8% = 80 USDT
16. If my profit increases from 1,000 USDT to 2,000 USDT, will the shield fee automatically increase?
No.
If the user locks in 1,000 USDT profit when activating Profit Shield, even if the profit later increases to 2,000 USDT, the shield fee will still be calculated based on 1,000 USDT as long as the user does not update the protection.
Only after the user actively updates the protection will the system recalculate the shield fee based on the new locked profit amount.
17. Can Profit Shield protection be updated?
Yes.
When the latest profit amount is at least 2 USDT higher than the previous locked profit amount, users may update the protection.
Update condition:
Latest Profit Amount - Previous Locked Profit Amount ≥ 2 USDT
After the update is successful, the new locked profit amount will become the calculation basis for subsequent shield fees.
18. What happens if profit continues to increase after activating Profit Shield?
Users may continue holding the position or choose to manually close it.
If the user does not update the protection, the shield fee will still be calculated based on the previous locked profit amount.
If the user actively updates the protection, the system will recalculate the shield fee based on the new locked profit amount.
19. What happens when Profit Shield expires?
Profit Shield has a protection duration of 24 hours.
After 24 hours, the system will automatically close and settle the position. The final result shall be subject to the actual system execution and page display.
20. Does Contract Dual Shield mean there will be no losses?
No.
Liquidation Shield and Profit Shield are only auxiliary tools for position management. They do not represent the platform’s judgment on market direction, nor do they mean that losses will not occur or that returns are guaranteed.
Contract trading carries high risk. Users should use it carefully based on their own risk tolerance.
