Manual | "Merge" and "Split" - Position Mode of Perpetual Contract (APP)

As part of Deepcoin’s improved functionality, the function of merge and split position modes has be added to perpetual contract. This feature is now available on both app and website. With the launch of this feature, the position management has been further subdivided, which makes operation and position management of perpetual contract more flexible. This article guides you through the “Merge” and “Split” position mode operation of perpetual contract.

■Supported Services

USDT perpetual contract. Inverse perpetual contract

■Function Description

New position modes can be divided into two types: "Merge" and "Split". In simple terms, "Merge" means merging positions and "Split" means not merging positions.

1. Merge Mode
When opening a new merge position in the same direction and with the same trading pair, the new order will be merged into your current merge position after filled. This means that in the merge-mode you will only have two positions, a long and a short.

2. Split Mode
You can create multiple positions in the same direction or in different directions on the same trading pair. These positions exist independently from each other, allowing for greater flexibility in position management.

The position modes of merge and split only apply to USDT perpetual contract and inverse perpetual.

■Operating Instructions

Tap [Contract] on the home screen to enter the USDT perpetual or inverse perpetual screen. In addition to setting the order type, quantity and other conditions for opening a position, you can also tap the [Merge125X] button besides the order type, choose to merge or split position mode, and then adjust the leverage you want. After setting the conditions, tap [Buy/Long]/[Sell/Short].
