ATX

Trading Disclosure

This document provides information about how ATX operates its trading platform, pricing mechanisms, and risks associated with derivatives trading. Please read before using the service.

1. ATX Operating Model

ATX primarily operates using the Market Maker model — ATX acts as a direct liquidity counterparty for the majority of trades on the platform. In some cases, orders may be matched with limit orders from other users when there is suitable liquidity (Exchange Matching). These are the two most common models in the industry, widely adopted by global derivatives trading platforms.

ModelHow it works on ATX
Exchange MatchingIn some cases, your orders are matched with limit orders from other users when there is suitable liquidity on the order book
Market MakerPrimary model — ATX acts as a direct liquidity counterparty for the majority of trades, ensuring orders are filled instantly regardless of market conditions
Why is the Market Maker model popular globally?
The Market Maker model is used by most major derivatives brokers worldwide such as IG Group, CMC Markets, and Plus500. The key advantage is instant liquidity — your orders are always filled immediately without waiting for a counterparty. When there are limit orders from other users on the order book, orders may be matched there instead of through the Market Maker.

2. Pricing and Liquidation

Prices on ATX are determined based on price feeds from the world's largest exchanges.

Price TypeDefinition and Usage
Mark PriceCalculated from the average of best bid and best ask on ATX's order book (sourced from Binance, OKX). Used to calculate unrealized PnL and determine liquidation thresholds.
Last PriceActual trading price on ATX — typically tracks Mark Price closely.

Automatic Liquidation

The system automatically closes positions when the account's margin ratio falls below the minimum threshold. The estimated liquidation price is displayed on the interface before you confirm an order.

Example
Margin: 100 USDT  |  Leverage: 20x  |  Position Value: 2,000 USDT

When price moves against you by approximately 4.5–5%, the margin ratio hits the minimum threshold and the position is automatically closed.

The specific liquidation price is displayed directly on the order confirmation screen.

Liquidation Insurance Fund

When liquidation occurs during highly volatile market conditions, the closing price may be worse than the expected liquidation price, causing your wallet balance to go negative. In such cases, the system automatically compensates the negative amount from the exchange's insurance fund, bringing your balance back to 0. This applies to both Cross Margin and Isolated Margin.

3. Leverage and Risk Management

Leverage allows you to control a position larger than your actual capital. This amplifies both potential profits and risk proportionally.

LeverageMax price movement before liquidation
5xApprox. 18%
10xApprox. 9%
20xApprox. 4.5%
50xApprox. 1.8%
100xApprox. 0.9%

These values are calculated based on Isolated Margin mode. At ATX, liquidation is triggered when ROE reaches -90%.

Capital Management Note
High leverage is suitable for short-term strategies with tight risk management.

ATX recommends new users start with low leverage and increase gradually as they gain experience.
