Dear Users,

Thank you for choosing BingX CFD trading services. To reduce liquidity volatility risk around major news releases, market open, market close, and before and after weekend closures, the platform will apply temporary leverage limits to relevant trading assets and adjust margin calculations during certain special sessions. This notice provides an overview of the relevant rules. Please read the following carefully before trading, and plan your trades and funds accordingly.

1) Scope of Application

These rules apply to CFD assets and applicable accounts designated by the platform. Trading hours may vary by underlying asset, so the platform applies the corresponding rules based on each asset's actual market open time, market close time, and configured major news sessions.

Trading hours for certain assets may change due to holidays, liquidity arrangements, or temporary market events. The actual applicable assets, account scope, and effective time are subject to the trading platform display and platform announcements.

2) Special Session Details

The platform will apply temporary leverage limits to relevant assets and increase margin requirements accordingly during the following special sessions:

• From approximately 15 minutes before a major news release to approximately 5 minutes after the release
• From approximately 3 hours before Friday market close to approximately 30 minutes after Monday market open
• From approximately 30 minutes before market close from Monday to Thursday to approximately 30 minutes after market open on the next trading day

Market open and market close times are based on the actual trading sessions of each asset. The major news list and specific effective windows are configured by the platform based on market risk conditions, and do not mean that the system will automatically cover all economic events.

To ensure stable rule execution, the platform may process market open and market close times in approximately 15-minute increments. For example:

• Assets with market open times of 00:02 or 00:06 may be approximated as opening at 00:00
• Assets with market close times of 23:56 or 23:58 may be approximated as closing at 24:00

As a result, the actual start or end time of the adjustment for individual assets may differ slightly from the exact market open or market close time.

3) Affected Assets and Adjustment Range

During special sessions, the platform will set a temporary maximum trading leverage for applicable trading assets and increase margin requirements accordingly. The leverage levels listed in the table below are the maximum leverage for applicable trades. This does not mean that all orders or position sizes are calculated using that value.

The actual applicable leverage may be lower than this cap due to the trading asset, position size, and applicable tiered margin rules, and the corresponding margin requirement may be higher. If the normal trading rules already specify lower leverage, the stricter limit will still apply. This adjustment will not increase the original available leverage.

The table below summarizes information by asset category and does not list every individual trading asset. The specific applicable assets, trading symbols, suffixed assets, and applicable accounts are subject to the trading platform display and final launch configuration.

• When tiered margin rules apply, the actual margin requirement may increase as the position size increases. Therefore, the actual applicable leverage may be lower than the limits above.
• "Others" does not include gold, silver, and crude oil, which are listed separately. XPT and XPD are asset identifiers. The actual trading symbols are subject to the platform display.
• Not all assets in this category will necessarily be adjusted. Assets whose normal first-tier leverage is already no higher than the target risk leverage will remain subject to the original rules.

• The actual effective period for each asset follows its own trading hours. In the event of holidays or temporary trading hour adjustments, the trading platform display and platform announcements will apply.

   

4) Actual Impact

During the special period, temporary leverage limits will affect margin checks when opening new positions, adding to positions, and when pending orders are triggered and filled. These limits will also affect the actual margin occupied by the positions formed after the above trades are filled. Regular positions established before the start of the special period will not be retroactively subject to this adjusted leverage.

Will affect

• Margin checks when opening new positions and adding to positions, and the actual margin occupied after the trades are filled.
• Margin checks when placing new orders or when pending orders are triggered and filled, and the margin occupied by the related filled positions.
• The account's overall margin occupied may increase due to changes in position size or position portfolio.
• If available margin is insufficient, orders may not be submitted or filled.
• During the special period, when making fund transfers, the platform may require the account to retain a higher margin buffer. The actual transferable limit may be lower than the regular transferable amount shown on the account page, and is subject to the real-time calculation results in the transfer preview and at submission.

Will not affect

• Does not change the open price, position side, or trade history of positions already filled.
• Does not modify the asset's original maintenance margin rate.
• Regular positions established before the start of the special period will not have their margin requirements retroactively increased due to this adjustment.

The maintenance margin rate remaining unchanged does not mean that the actual margin occupied by risk positions opened, increased, or formed from filled orders during the special period remains unchanged. The actual margin occupied by related positions will still be calculated according to the special period rules above.

After the special period ends, the related positions will again be subject to the margin rules for normal periods. The system will recalculate margin based on the position size and applicable rules at that time. The actual amount released is subject to the calculation result.

Regular positions established before the start of a special period will not be subject to retroactive increases in margin requirements. However, after new positions are opened, positions are increased, or pending orders are filled during a special period, the account's overall margin usage may still change due to changes in position size or position portfolio. You need to monitor your account equity, available margin, actual margin usage, position size, pending orders, and fund transfers before and after special periods to make sure your account has enough risk buffer.

5) Risk Warning

Liquidity may drop, spreads may widen, prices may gap, or execution prices may deviate around important news releases, market open, market close, and weekend closures. Adjustments to leverage and margin rules cannot eliminate market risk.

You should trade carefully based on your own risk tolerance, and stay up to date on platform announcements, trading hour changes, important market events, and your account margin status.
