Formulas
This document defines the trading rules and calculation methodology for futures contracts on the exchange1 INR platform. Contracts are matched and risk-managed in USDT internally, while every monetary value is displayed and settled to the user in Indian Rupees using a configured INR Rate.
- Applies to all futures contracts offered on the exchange1 India (INR) platform.
- Covers both Cross and Isolated margin modes.
- Defines order-entry cost checks, fee and funding calculations, and liquidation pricing.
- Monetary figures are shown in USDT with the INR equivalent alongside, converted at the INR Rate.
Value (INR) = Value (USDT) × INR Rate, with INR Rate = ₹90.
2. Key Concepts & Account Parameters
The following parameters drive every calculation in this document. Users should understand each before placing an order.
| Parameter | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Available Balance | Free margin in the account available to open new positions. |
| Leverage | Multiplier applied to margin to determine position size. |
| Mark Price | Fair price used for P&L and liquidation, independent of last trade. |
| Opening / Average Price | Entry price of the position. |
| Contract Direction | +1 for Long, −1 for Short. |
| Contract Unit / Face Value | Underlying amount represented by one contract. |
| Quantity | Number of contracts (or token quantity) held. |
| Fee Rate | Trading commission rate applied to notional value. |
| Risk Ratio | Maintenance threshold; liquidation triggers when the margin ratio falls below it |
| INR Rate | Platform conversion factor used to display USDT values in Indian Rupees (₹90 per USDT in this document). |
2.1 The INR Rate
Every contract on the INR platform is priced and matched in USDT internally, then displayed to the user in Indian Rupees using a configured conversion factor, the INR Rate. In all worked examples in this document the INR Rate is taken as ₹90 per 1 USDT.
Value (INR) = Value (USDT) × INR Rate
3. Margin Modes
3.1 Cross Margin
In Cross margin mode the entire available account balance backs all open positions. Profit on one position can offset loss on another, and liquidation is assessed at the account level.
(Available Balance + (Total Floating P&L − Total Required Commission Fees))
÷ Total Margin Used for Open Positions < Risk Ratio
Cross Risk Ratio (Account Balance + Total Floating P&L − Total Commission Fees) ÷ Total Used Margin × 100%
3.2 Isolated Margin
In Isolated margin mode each position is backed only by the margin allocated to it. A loss is capped at that position's margin and cannot draw on the rest of the account.
(Position Margin + Unrealized P&L − Estimated Closing Fees) ÷ Position Margin < Risk Ratio
(Margin + Floating P&L − Estimated Closing Fee) ÷ Margin
4. Order Entry & Cost Calculation
When a user submits an order, the platform validates affordability by computing the margin, fees and total cost of the position, then the maximum number of contracts the available balance can support.
4.1 Available Margin After Fee Reservation
Available Margin = Available Balance ÷ (1 + Leverage × Fee Rate)
4.2 Position Value
Position Value (USDT) = Contract Quantity × Mark Price
→ Position Value (INR) = Position Value (USDT) × INR Rate
4.3 Cost & Fees
Cost (USDT) = (Face Value × Quantity × Opening Price ÷ Leverage)
× (1 + Fee Rate × Leverage)
→ Cost (INR) = Cost (USDT) × INR Rate
Fee (INR) = (Opening Price × Quantity × Unit Conversion × Fee Rate) × INR Rate
4.4 Maximum Contracts
Max Contracts = ROUNDDOWN(Available Balance ÷ Total Cost per Contract)
4.5 Worked Example
Using the INR order-entry parameters: Available Margin 260.52, Leverage 150×, Fee Rate 0.05%, Price 66,000, Size 0.004 per contract, INR Rate ₹90.
| Step | USDT | INR (× 90) |
|---|---|---|
| Available margin after fee reserve = 260.52 ÷ (1 + 150 × 0.0005) | 242.34 | - |
| Position size = 66,000 × 0.004 × 1 | 264.00 | 23,760 |
| Cost per contract = (0.004 × 66,000 ÷ 150) × (1 + 0.0005 × 150) | 1.892 | 170.28 |
| Fee = 0.004 × 66,000 × 0.0005 | 0.132 | 11.88 |
| Total cost per contract | 1.892 | 182.16 |
| Max contracts = ROUNDDOWN(260.52 ÷ total cost) | 1 | - |
| Resulting size = 1 × 0.004 | 0.004 | - |
5. Complete Calculation Formula Reference
The full set of platform formulas is listed below for reference. Where a value is monetary, both the USDT computation and the INR equivalent are shown.
(Available Balance + (Total Floating P&L − Total Required Commission Fees)) ÷ Total Margin Used for Open Positions < Risk Ratio
(Position Margin + Unrealized P&L − Estimated Closing Fees) ÷ Position Margin < Risk Ratio
Floating P&L (INR) =
(Mark Price − Average Opening Price) × Token Quantity × Contract Direction
× Contract Face Value × INR Rate
(Account Balance + Total Floating P&L − Total Commission Fees) ÷ Total Used Margin × 100%
(Margin + Floating P&L − Estimated Closing Fee) ÷ Margin
Fee (USDT) = Margin × Leverage × Commission Rate → Fee (INR) = Fee (USDT) × INR Rate
Overnight Fee (INR) = (Margin × Overnight Rate ÷ Leverage) × INR Rate
Funding Fee (INR) = (Position Value × Funding Rate) × INR Rate
Position Value (USDT) = Contract Quantity × Mark Price → Position Value (INR) = Position Value (USDT) × INR Rate
Used Margin (USDT) = Quantity × Contract Unit × Opening Price ÷ Leverage → Used Margin (INR) = Used Margin (USDT) × INR Rate
Quantity = Margin × Leverage ÷ (Contract Unit × Opening Price)
Floating P&L (INR) = (Mark Price − Average Opening Price) × Token Quantity × Contract Direction × Contract Face Value × INR Rate
Cost (USDT) = (Face Value × Quantity × Opening Price ÷ Leverage) × (1 + Fee Rate × Leverage) → Cost (INR) = Cost (USDT) × INR Rate
Profit/Loss Ratio = Floating P&L ÷ Margin × 100%
Fee (INR) = (Opening Price × Quantity × Unit Conversion × Fee Rate) × INR Rate
Estimated Closing Fee (INR) = [Fee Rate × Order Quantity × Contract Face Value × Estimated Execution Price] × INR Rate
Realized P&L + Closing Fee = Closing P&L (App)
Liq Price = Opening Price − (((Position Margin ÷ INR Rate) − 0.1 × (Position Margin ÷ INR Rate) − Estimated Closing Fee) ÷ (Quantity × Direction))
(Margin + Floating P&L − Estimated Closing Fee) ÷ Margin
Realized P&L (INR) = (Closing Price − Opening Price) × Base Size × Direction × INR Rate
6. Liquidation in Detail
6.1 Cross Margin Liquidation Price
Liq Price = Mark Price − Contract Direction ×
((Available Balance ÷ INR Rate) + All Position Floating P&L
− All Opening Fees − All Position Margin × Risk Ratio)
÷ (|Contract Quantity Difference| × Contract Face Value)
Where: Position Floating P&L = (Mark Price − Open Price) × Quantity × Direction × Face Value; and Opening Fee = Quantity × Open Price × Face Value × Fee Rate.
Worked example — Cross
BTCUSDT long, 1 contract of size 0.001, entry 67,070, mark 67,200.3, leverage 75×, available 16.85 USDT, risk ratio 10%. The liquidation price is a price level and is displayed identically; only the underlying balances are shown in INR.
| Step | USDT | INR (× 90) |
|---|---|---|
| Symbol / Direction | BTCUSDT / Long (+1) | - |
| Open Price | 67,070 | - |
| Mark Price | 67,200.3 | - |
| Available Balance | 16.85 | 1516.50 |
| Risk Ratio | 10% | - |
| Cross Liquidation Price | 50,438.4 | - |
6.2 Isolated Margin Liquidation Price
Liq Price = Opening Price − (((Position Margin ÷ INR Rate) − 0.1 × (Position Margin ÷ INR Rate) − Estimated Closing Fee) ÷ (Quantity × Direction))
Worked example — Isolated
Isolated long, entry 80,585.8, size 0.001, leverage 120×, maintenance ratio 0.1, fee rate 0.05%, INR Rate ₹90. Fees are shown in both USDT and INR, matching the Isolated worked sheet.
| Parameter | USDT | INR (× 90) |
|---|---|---|
| Open Price | 80,585.8 | - |
| Position Margin = 80,585.8 × 0.001 ÷ 120 | 0.6715 | 60.44 |
| Open Fee = 80,585.8 × 0.001 × 0.05% | 0.0403 | 3.626 |
| Est. Close Fee = 0.001 × 80,585.8 × 0.05% | 0.0403 | 3.626 |
| Risk Ratio | 10% | - |
| Maintenance Ratio | 0.10 | - |
| Isolated Liquidation Price (price level — same on both) | 80,021.7 | - |
7. Fees & Funding
| Fee Type | Formula |
|---|---|
| Commission | Fee (USDT) = Margin × Leverage × Commission Rate → Fee (INR) = Fee (USDT) × INR Rate |
| Overnight Fee | Overnight Fee (INR) = (Margin × Overnight Rate ÷ Leverage) × INR Rate |
| Funding Fee | Funding Fee (INR) = (Position Value × Funding Rate) × INR Rate |
| Estimated Closing Fee | Estimated Closing Fee (INR) = (Quantity × Latest Price × Contract Face Value × Fee Rate) × INR Rate |
8. Risk Disclaimer
Futures trading involves substantial risk and can result in the loss of your entire margin. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses. INR values are derived from the underlying USDT computation using the platform INR Rate and may move as that rate is updated.
The formulas and worked examples in this document are provided for transparency and education. Actual fills, fees, mark prices, the applicable INR Rate and liquidation events are determined by the live matching and risk engines at the moment of execution.
