2. Investment Risks
Cryptocurrency futures trading involves significant risks that you must understand before participating. These risks include, but are not limited to:
Complete Loss of Capital
You can lose your entire investment and potentially more than your initial margin when trading futures contracts. Leveraged trading amplifies both gains and losses.
Extreme Volatility
Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile and can experience rapid price movements of 50% or more within short periods. Prices can gap through stop losses, resulting in larger-than-expected losses.
Liquidation Risk
Futures positions can be liquidated automatically when prices move against your position. Liquidation can occur at worse prices than anticipated due to market gaps or slippage.
Leverage Risk
Using leverage magnifies both potential profits and losses. Small price movements against your position can result in significant losses exceeding your initial investment.
Additional Market Risks
- Regulatory Risk: Changing regulations can significantly impact cryptocurrency markets
- Liquidity Risk: Some markets may have low liquidity, leading to wider spreads and slippage
- Counterparty Risk: Risk that trading platforms or counterparties may default
- Technology Risk: Exchange hacks, technical failures, or cyber attacks
- Funding Rate Risk: Costs associated with maintaining perpetual futures positions
3. Calculator Limitations
Important: Our calculator tools provide theoretical projections based on mathematical formulas. Actual trading results will differ due to real-world market conditions and execution variables.
The calculations provided by our tools are estimates only and may not reflect actual trading outcomes due to:

- Fees and Costs: Trading fees, funding rates, and other costs that vary by platform
- Market Gaps: Prices can jump between levels, bypassing stop losses
- Liquidation Mechanics: Different exchanges have varying liquidation mechanisms
- Real-time Conditions: Market depth, liquidity, and volatility affect execution
Assumptions and Estimates
Our calculators make certain assumptions that may not hold in actual trading:
- Perfect execution at specified prices
- Standard fee structures that may differ across exchanges
- Continuous price movement without gaps
- Standard maintenance margin requirements
- Immediate order fulfillment
Verification Required: Always verify calculator results with your actual trading platform and account specifications. Different exchanges may calculate margins, fees, and liquidation prices differently.
