What Leverage Levels Can I Choose on Pluang Crypto Futures?

You can choose leverage anywhere from 1x up to a maximum of 25x, selected per contract before you open a position, rather than one fixed ratio applied across your whole account. Of Pluang's 49 active Crypto Futures contracts, 46 support up to 25x — BAT, FIL, and ZRX are capped at a maximum of 10x as a risk-management measure. Whatever level you choose, your leverage is locked in for that specific order the moment you submit it, and it applies only to that contract; you can run a different leverage level on another contract at the same time. Higher leverage means a larger position for the same amount of margin, so both potential profits and potential losses move faster and further. This genuinely increases how quickly an adverse price move can bring you closer to liquidation.


A few things worth knowing about the range:

  • Not every pair supports the full 1x–25x range — BAT, FIL, and ZRX are capped at a maximum of 10x leverage; always check the specific contract's cap before opening a position.
  • Leverage is set before you open a position, not adjusted automatically afterward, and stays locked once the order is submitted.
  • Higher leverage means faster, larger swings in both directions — it's a decision about how much risk you're comfortable taking, not just a way to maximize potential upside.
  • The choice is per contract, not account-wide — you can run different leverage levels on different positions simultaneously.

Related questions:

Q: Is the leverage range the same for every Crypto Futures pair?
No. 46 of Pluang's 49 active contracts support up to 25x; BAT, FIL, and ZRX are capped at a maximum of 10x for risk management reasons. Always check the specific contract's cap before opening a position.

Q: Can I change my leverage after opening a position?
Leverage is set when you open the position and is locked once your order is submitted; changing it requires closing the position first, or setting a different leverage before your next new order.

Q: Does higher leverage mean higher potential profit?
Higher leverage increases both potential profit and potential loss at the same rate — it amplifies outcomes in both directions, not just gains.

Q: What's the minimum leverage I can select?
The minimum is 1x, which means your position size matches your margin one-to-one with no amplification, the lowest-risk setting available.

Q: Why are BAT, FIL, and ZRX capped lower than other contracts?
The 10x cap on these three contracts is a risk-management measure intended to keep the trading experience more stable on pairs Pluang has identified as needing tighter controls.
