To meet the diverse trading needs of our users, BIT has officially launched the Perpetual Hedge Mode, allowing traders to navigate volatile markets with greater flexibility. (Copy trading currently does not support Hedge Mode.)
The Hedge Mode allows users to hold both long (bullish) and short (bearish) positions simultaneously on the same trading pair. This enables traders to adjust their positions flexibly based on different market expectations or strategy requirements, without having to offset their existing positions.
Differences Between One-way and Hedge Mode
Feature | One-way Mode | Hedge Mode |
Position Direction | Only one direction allowed | Long and short positions coexist |
Profit & Loss Calculation | Calculates net position P&L | Separately calculates P&L for each direction |
Target Users | Beginners, simple strategies | Advanced traders, complex strategies |
Risk Hedging | Not supported | Supported |
Strategy Flexibility | Low | High |
Position Logic
One-way Mode
You can only hold either a long or short position at a time. Buying or selling the same symbol will adjust your existing position, rather than open a new one.
Hedge Mode
You can hold long and short positions of the same symbol at the same time.
Applicable Scenarios
One-way Mode
Suitable for traders with a clear market direction judgment, such as when simply bullish or bearish.
Simplifies strategy execution and reduces management complexity.
Hedge Mode
Ideal for situations with market uncertainty, allowing risk hedging by holding both long and short positions.
Suitable for advanced strategies, such as locking in current position profits, step-by-step entry, or arbitrage trading.
