Who This Is For

With the introduction of Equity Perps, traders can express views on global stock markets directly from the Exchange. These instruments are particularly useful for:

• Traders seeking capital-efficient exposure to major global companies
• Positioning around corporate earnings, market gaps, and sector momentum
• Diversifying macro strategies across crypto, commodities, indices, and equity markets
• Running event-driven trades tied to breaking macro or corporate news

Trading Hours And Pricing Logic

Equity Perpetuals offer continuous trading access while referencing underlying equity market sessions for price discovery across pre-market, regular hours, after-hours, overnight, and weekend periods.

Index prices update during active trading sessions using external market data feeds. When underlying markets close, pricing transitions to controlled mechanisms designed to maintain price stability until markets reopen. This structure enables continuous trading while helping protect against distortions caused by thin liquidity during off-market hours.

Funding behavior may also differ outside the primary trading hours of the underlying market, and rates may fluctuate more widely during these periods.

Margin And Leverage

Equity Perpetuals follow defined margin and risk controls within the Exchange derivatives environment, with leverage limits up to 10x and trading parameters set per instrument and subject to jurisdictional restrictions.

Eligible non-retail participants may access trading through dedicated account configurations depending on account setup. Users should review the instrument details for the latest product parameters before trading.

Portfolio And Risk Controls

Equity positions appear alongside other derivatives in Portfolio, Positions, Order History, and Trade History, allowing users to manage exposure across multiple asset classes within one account.

During periods when underlying markets are closed, funding behavior and pricing controls may adjust to reflect market conditions. Corporate actions or extraordinary market events may also trigger protective measures in accordance with Exchange rules. Users should review instrument details carefully before trading.

Disclaimer: Trading perpetual contracts and using margin involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all users. Perpetual contracts are complex financial instruments subject to significant price volatility, and losses can occur rapidly. You may lose all or more than your initial margin, particularly during periods of high market volatility, low liquidity, or extreme market events.

When trading Commodity Perpetuals, margin allocated to a position is subject to liquidation if maintenance requirements are not met. Liquidation may occur quickly if market prices move against your position, and losses may equal the full amount of margin assigned. The use of leverage amplifies both gains and losses, increases liquidation risk, and does not eliminate the possibility of losing your entire allocated margin. Funding fees, trading fees, price slippage, system delays, and market gaps may further impact position outcomes.

Funding calculations may differ during active and inactive trading sessions for the underlying asset in accordance with Crypto.com Exchange rules. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and this content does not constitute investment or trading advice.

Product availability, margin modes and leverage limits are subject to jurisdictional restrictions and regulatory requirements. Trading on Crypto.com Exchange is subject to the applicable Terms and Conditions, Risk Disclosure Statements and Exchange Rules.
