Exchange Identifiers
Futures endpoints take an exchange parameter that specifies which futures venue the request applies to.
| Identifier | Used for |
|---|---|
EXCHANGE_2 | All futures trading. |
EXCHANGE_2 is the only futures exchange identifier. Send it on every futures request.
The value is case-insensitive on input. Responses uppercase it: "EXCHANGE_2".
Symbol format
Futures symbols are concatenated without a slash — BASE and QUOTE joined directly:
| Format | Example |
|---|---|
BTCUSDT | BTC perpetual, settled in USDT |
ETHUSDT | ETH perpetual, settled in USDT |
DOGEUSDT | DOGE perpetual, settled in USDT |
1000PEPEUSDT | 1000-PEPE perpetual (multiplier prefix on small-tick assets) |
This is different from Spot, which uses BASE/QUOTE with a slash.
Symbols are case-insensitive on input but uppercased in responses.
The full list of available symbols, with min order size, leverage limits, fees, and tick size, is on Get Instrument Info.
Quote asset
All futures contracts are quoted and settled in USDT. Profit, loss, fees, and funding are all in USDT.
