Advantages of Leveraged Tokens on AscendEX

1. Easy-to-operate, No Collateral Required, No Liquidation

Similar to crypto spot trading, there is no liquidation in leveraged token trading. AscendEX offers users an easy-to-use trading experience with Leveraged Tokens without requiring collateral in the Leveraged Token section of the platform.

2. Rebalancing to Control Trading Risks

Through dynamic rebalancing, a leveraged Token purchases or sells more of the asset based on the asset’s daily performance to maintain its target leverage and to avoid the risk of liquidation.  

3. Automatic Compound Mode and Reducing Positions

In the case of an upswing in price of the underlying asset , the automatic compound mode supports the purchase of more leveraged tokens using the returns from trading to yield greater returns than margin trading. Stop-loss order will be triggered in batches to automatically reduce the trading size, avoiding liquidation in case of a downswing.
