Why Choose Crypto Futures on Pluang?
Crypto Futures on Pluang stand out for their flexibility — you can open and close positions anytime since Pluang only offers perpetual contracts, which never expire, unlike a traditional dated futures contract that forces a settlement date on you. That same flexibility carries a trade-off: with no expiration date, nothing automatically closes your position for you, so you must actively monitor market conditions and manage your margin to avoid unexpected losses, especially since Crypto Futures can be highly volatile in either direction. Choosing this product also means accepting leverage-related risk, since 49 active contracts are available and most support leverage of up to 25x, which magnifies both gains and losses well beyond what the same trade would produce without leverage. Crypto Futures suits traders who want control over timing and are prepared to manage a position actively rather than treat it as a passive, buy-and-hold trade.
What makes Crypto Futures flexible:
- No expiration date — you decide when to open and close a position, since Pluang only offers perpetual contracts.
- Trade on your own schedule — fits both short-term speculation and longer holding periods without rolling into a new contract.
The trade-off to keep in mind:
- Requires active monitoring — you're responsible for tracking market conditions and managing your position.
- High volatility — prices can move significantly and quickly, especially on a leveraged position.

Q: Do Crypto Futures contracts on Pluang expire?
No. Crypto Futures contracts have no expiration date, which is what gives you flexibility over when to open and close positions. Pluang offers perpetual contracts exclusively, so there's no separate dated contract type to choose between — every position you open follows the same no-expiry structure regardless of which of the 49 available contracts you trade. This consistency also makes it simpler to compare contracts against each other, since the underlying mechanics work identically whether you're trading a major coin or one of the pairs capped at lower leverage.
Q: Does having no expiration date mean lower risk?
No — it means you're responsible for actively monitoring your position to avoid unexpected losses, since nothing forces an automatic settlement. A position left unattended for days can move substantially against you in either direction, so the absence of an expiry date shifts responsibility onto you rather than removing risk from the trade itself. This is why setting your own risk limits, such as a maximum loss you're willing to accept before closing manually, matters more with perpetual contracts than with a dated contract that closes itself.
Q: Are Crypto Futures more volatile than other assets?
Yes. Crypto Futures can experience significant price fluctuations, which contributes to both their profit potential and their risk. Combined with leverage of up to 25x on most contracts, a volatile price swing translates into an even larger swing in your unrealized PnL, which is why active position management matters more here than in a lower-volatility asset. This is also why a smaller position size on a highly leveraged contract can carry similar risk to a larger position on one with lower leverage, so the leverage multiplier and position size need to be considered together.
Q: Can I open and close a Crypto Futures position anytime?
Yes. Because contracts don't expire, you have flexibility to trade on your own timeline rather than a fixed schedule. This applies to all 49 active Crypto Futures contracts on Pluang, so you're not restricted to opening or closing positions only during certain market hours or contract windows. Keep in mind that trading anytime doesn't remove the need for a plan — a position opened outside your usual monitoring hours still accrues funding rate charges and remains exposed to price moves just like one opened during the day.
