The Minimum Price Increment (Tick Size) is the smallest increment by which the price of a contract can move.
A smaller Minimum Price Increment can theoretically lead to reduced bid-offer spreads, useful for price takers when crossing the spread to trade.
Lot Size
On 26 Mar 2025 at 04:00 UTC, the Lot Sizes for the following contracts will be reduced as shown below.
Perpetual swap | Current Lot Size (Contracts) | Lot Size (Contracts) starting |
XRPUSDT | 1000 | 100 |
TRXUSDT | 1000 | 100 |
The Lot Size is an instrument’s minimum trading unit (as number of contracts).
A smaller Lot Size means that traders can place orders with a smaller position size increment and participate in trading these contracts with smaller capital requirements.
