FAQ
Q: Why do I only see one position under a specific contract even though hedge mode is enabled? This may be caused by the following reasons:
- Position liquidation: If any of your long or short positions triggers liquidation, that position will be automatically closed. Therefore, even with the hedge mode enabled, you may only see the remaining position. Check your trading history and account balance to confirm if liquidation has occurred.
- Hedge mode not successfully enabled: If you tried to enable hedge mode but still only see one position under a specific contract, hedge mode may not have been successfully enabled. Return to the [Position Mode] settings to confirm that hedge mode is correctly enabled.
