This mode is designed to meet the needs of professional traders and multi-strategy users for precise position management in complex market conditions. It supports deploying multiple risk preference trading strategies within the same contract market, further enhancing trading flexibility and strategic execution space. In the sub-positions mode, users can hold both long and short positions simultaneously within the same perpetual contract market, supporting a hybrid of full and isolated margin modes. A single market can hold up to four types of positions at the same time: full-margin long, full-margin short, isolated-margin long, and isolated-margin short. In isolated-margin mode, long and short positions can be set with different leverage multiples, and the leverage parameters of isolated and full-margin positions are independent and do not affect each other, providing users with greater freedom and clearer risk isolation for their trading strategies. Currently, Gate perpetual contracts support over 600 derivative trading types, covering USDT and BTC settlement methods, and offer flexible leverage configurations and diverse strategy combinations.
