What Does "Max Contracts" Mean?
The "max contracts" rule ensures you trade within safe limits for your account. Minis are standard futures contracts, while micros are one-tenth the size of minis.
For example, if you have a $50,000 account, you can trade up to 4 minis, 40 micros, or a combination (e.g., 2 minis and 20 micros).
Staying within these limits helps manage risk and keep your account compliant. It is the trader’s personal responsibility to monitor and follow the clearly outlined contract scaling rules.
Exceeding your allowed contract limit is considered a rule violation.
If the contract scaling rules are not followed:
Trades may be rejected or reduced
The account may be flagged for review
Profits generated while exceeding contract limits may be removed
Payout requests may be deemed ineligible
Compliance with scaling rules is mandatory for payout eligibility.
⚠️ Special Note on Micro Bitcoin Futures (MBT):
Due to the significantly higher volatility and leverage associated with cryptocurrency futures, we have implemented separate max contract limits specifically for Micro Bitcoin Futures (MBT):
$25,000 account – Max 1 Micro Bitcoin contract
$50,000 account – Max 3/4 Micro Bitcoin contracts, depending on Account type
$100,000 account – Max 5/8 Micro Bitcoin contracts, depending on Account type
$150,000 account – Max 7/12 Micro Bitcoin contracts, depending on account type
These limits are in place to better protect traders from the rapid price swings and amplified risk that come with trading crypto derivatives.
