Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main benefit of trading PENGU perpetual contracts?
Perpetual contracts allow you to speculate on PENGU's price direction without owning the underlying asset. They offer high leverage options and enable both long and short positions, providing flexibility in various market conditions.
How does the Simple Earn feature work with PENGU?
Simple Earn allows you to deposit your PENGU tokens into a product to potentially earn rewards over time. The specific terms, such as APY and lock-up periods, will be detailed within the product listing on the platform.
What is the initial funding rate cap for PENGU perpetuals?
To ensure stability at launch, a reduced funding rate cap of 0.03% is in effect initially. This helps prevent excessive fees for traders while the market establishes its equilibrium.
Is there a difference between leverage trading and perpetual contracts?
Yes. Leverage trading typically involves borrowing funds to amplify a spot market position. Perpetual contracts are derivative instruments that track an asset's price and use a funding mechanism to tether them to the spot price, often allowing for higher leverage.
What risk management tools are available for these products?
The platform provides standard tools like stop-loss and take-profit orders. For leverage and perpetual positions, closely monitoring your margin ratio is crucial to avoid automatic liquidation.
