    The Derivatives Account serves as the focal point for facilitating Derivatives trading tailored for Standard Account users. This specialized account streamlines trade management, providing traders with essential tools to enhance their trading endeavors. Similarly, the Inverse Derivatives Account mirrors the functionality of the Derivatives Account. However, it is exclusively accessible to Unified Trading Account users and is designed specifically for Inverse contracts. 

     

    While the Derivatives Account and Inverse Derivatives Account share similarities, they also exhibit distinct differences, including the following:

    Derivatives Overview

     



    Total Equity

    • Equity = Wallet Balance + Unrealized P&L (in Mark Price)
    • The total equity value of your assets under the Derivatives Account, displayed in USD and BTC. 
    • The individual equity value of each asset is first converted to USD based on the index price and then converted back to its equivalent BTC value.
    • If you have selected another fiat currency, please note that the displayed fiat amount is estimated and has been converted based on daily exchange rates on the Yahoo page.

    Unrealized P&L

    • This shows the unrealized P&L from Perpetual and Futures Contracts in the Derivatives Account. 
    • It is calculated by determining the difference between the average entry price and the current mark price

    Coin

    • This shows the current assets supported in your Derivatives or Inverse Derivatives Account.

    Net Equity

    • This is the equity value of the respective asset. 
    • Equity = Wallet Balance + Unrealized P&L (in Mark Price)

    Wallet Balance (Bonus inclusive)

    • The actual number of coins that you held physically in your Derivatives Account, including any bonus. 
    • Wallet Balance = Available Balance + Position Margin + Order Margin
    • If you have a negative wallet balance, this can be due to your available balance and position margin being fully deducted by the Funding Fee, but your position is not liquidated yet as the current unrealized profit can maintain your position from liquidation. 

    Unrealized P&L

    • Similar to the total unrealized P&L above, this includes the unrealized P&L in that respective coin by deriving the difference between the average entry price and the current mark price. 
    • However, your actual closed P&L is based on the difference between the average entry price and average exit price, minus any trading fees or funding fees. 
    • To learn how to calculate unrealized P&L, please refer to the articles below.

    Available Balance (Bonus Inclusive)

    • This shows the available balance in your Derivatives Account for position opening and order placement.
