V2 is the professional perps interface. It runs on the same Aster engine as V1, with up to 100x leverage on every market, and adds everything an active trader expects from a centralized exchange terminal.

The layout

Order types

Order options

  • Time in force. GTC (good till cancelled) keeps a limit order in the book until it fills or you cancel it. IOC (immediate or cancel) fills whatever it can right away at your price or better, and cancels the rest.
  • Reduce only. The order can only reduce an existing position, never open or increase one. Useful for exits.

Margin modes

Choose the margin mode for a market before you open a position in it. You cannot change the margin mode while you have an open position or open orders in that market. See Margin and leverage.

Managing positions

From the Positions tab you can:
  • Close at market, or close with a limit order at a chosen price.
  • Close part of a position.
  • Add or remove margin on isolated positions, which moves the liquidation price.
  • Set or adjust TP/SL.
Use GTC for limit orders you are happy to wait on, and IOC when you want a fast fill without leaving a resting order behind. Add Reduce only to exit orders so they can never flip your position by accident.
