More Contracts
We’ve heard feedback from customers that they’re looking for more futures contract options. Coinbase Financial Markets (CFM) added several new contracts, and we are the first to allow traders to access crypto futures contracts for Dogecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Litecoin.
In addition to the five crypto contracts now available on Coinbase Advanced, traders also tell us that they would like one platform to conveniently trade all types of futures contracts. That’s why for the first time ever on Coinbase Advanced, traders can now access real world assets like commodities futures contracts for gold and oil.
More Leverage
Traders also tell us that they want to trade with more leverage. CFM is introducing higher leverage options for day traders and increasing position limits to empower users to optimize their trading potential. Traders can access up to 20X leverage on commodity futures and 5X leverage on crypto futures. Important note: Leverage in futures trading can work for you or against you. The risk of loss using leverage can exceed your initial investment amount.
More Platforms
In addition to availability on the web, traders can now trade futures with CFM on the Coinbase mobile app on iOS and Android. This means traders can view real-time market data, advanced charting tools, and execute trades anywhere, anytime.
Many traders need programmatic trading tools, so Coinbase Advanced now offers an API to meet these needs. Traders now have the flexibility to integrate our API with their preferred platforms.
