Merge Positions and Split Positions
Position Management
Traders can utilize a 2+N position structure to manage positions under the same trading pair with enhanced flexibility:
“2” refers to one merged long position and one merged short position per symbol.
“N” refers to multiple independent (segregated) positions that can coexist alongside merged positions.
This system allows traders to adopt diverse strategies within a single market—balancing long-term holdings with short-term, high-frequency trades.
Benefits of Segregated Positions
Each segregated position supports:
Independent leverage settings
Flexible position adjustments (add/reduce)
Separate take-profit and stop-loss settings
This allows for precision trade management, making it easier to isolate strategies and minimize the emotional and financial impact of overall position fluctuations.
Example:
A trader may open a large, low-leverage merged position for long-term holding, while simultaneously using segregated positions with high leverage to capitalize on short-term price movements.
Position Modes
1. Merged Position Mode
In merged mode, all positions of the same direction (long or short) for a given trading pair are automatically consolidated.
Example:
If a trader holds a 100 USDT long position in BTC/USDT and opens another 120 USDT long position, the positions will merge into a single 220 USDT long position.
2. Segregated Position Mode
In segregated mode, each newly opened position is managed independently, even if it shares the same direction and trading pair.
Example:
If a trader opens a 100 USDT long position in BTC/USDT and then opens a new 120 USDT long position, the result will be two separate long positions.
How to Use Position Modes
Step 1: Open a Position
On the trading page, click the 【All Positions / Individual Positions】 toggle in the top-left corner to select Merged or Segregated mode.
Choose your desired leverage multiplier.
Input the position size and confirm the trade.
Suggested Use:
Merged Mode is recommended for low-leverage, medium-to-long-term positions.
Segregated Mode is ideal for small test trades or directional confirmation when uncertain.
Opening Path:
App → Trading Page → Click 【Market Order】 → Enter Quantity → Select Position Mode (Merged or Segregated) → Choose Leverage → Click 【Buy / Open Long】 or 【Sell / Open Short】
Step 2: Manage Positions
In Merged Position Mode:
Click “Adjust Leverage” to modify the leverage for the merged position (margin will be recalculated accordingly).
Use the following quick actions:
Take-Profit / Stop-Loss
Trailing Exit
Close Position
To modify position size, open additional merged orders to increase or reduce exposure.
Take-Profit/Stop-Loss Settings:
All: Applies to the entire merged position. Any additional orders added later will be covered by the same trigger price.
Segmented: Applies only to the portion set at that time. Future added positions will not be affected.
In both modes, set a trigger price for take-profit or stop-loss. Once the market price reaches the trigger, the system will execute a market close.
In Segregated Position Mode:
Each position includes the following controls:
Take-Profit / Stop-Loss
Adjust Leverage
Add Position
Close Position
To change leverage, click “Adjust Leverage” under the specific position.
To add size, click “Add Position” and place an order at limit or market price.
Take-profit/stop-loss setup functions the same as in merged mode.
Summary
The 2+N position system offers advanced flexibility for both novice and professional traders.
Use Merged Mode for streamlined risk management and simplicity.
Use Segregated Mode for strategy isolation and high-frequency trading.
Always manage your leverage and risk parameters carefully, especially when operating multiple concurrent positions.
