Can All Crypto Futures Contracts Be Traded Using 25x Leverage on Pluang?

No. Most of Pluang's active Crypto Futures contracts support leverage up to 25x, while BAT, FIL, and ZRX are capped at a maximum of 10x as an ongoing risk-management measure, not a temporary restriction. You can check the current leverage cap for any specific contract on Pluang's official announcement page before opening a position, since assuming every pair supports the full range can lead to a rejected or differently sized order than you expected. The cap is applied per contract rather than across your whole account, so holding or trading BAT, FIL, or ZRX at a maximum of 10x has no bearing on the leverage available to you on any of the other active contracts. This distinction matters because higher leverage always increases both potential profit and potential loss at the same rate — it genuinely narrows your buffer before liquidation, so knowing exactly which cap applies to your chosen contract before you open a position is a meaningful part of managing your risk on Crypto Futures.


Why this cap exists:

  • It's a risk-management measure, designed to keep the Crypto Futures ecosystem healthier and give traders a safer, more stable experience across different market conditions on the specific pairs where it applies.
  • The cap is contract-specific, not account-wide. You can still open positions with up to 25x leverage on any of Pluang's other active contracts, regardless of what you're trading on BAT, FIL, or ZRX.
  • The list can be checked directly at [pluang.com/akademi/blog/perubahan-leverage-4dec](https://pluang.com/akademi/blog/perubahan-leverage-4dec) before you open a new position, so you always know the maximum leverage available on your chosen contract ahead of time.
  • The cap reflects current, ongoing policy — it isn't a one-off adjustment tied to a single past date, but a standing rule that governs new leverage selections on these three contracts going forward.

Related questions:

Q: How many contracts are capped at 10x leverage?
3 contracts — BAT, FIL, and ZRX — are capped at a maximum of 10x leverage; Pluang's other active contracts still support leverage up to 25x. This means the large majority of contracts on the platform aren't affected by this particular cap at all, so it's worth confirming which category your chosen pair falls into.

Q: Where can I check which contracts are capped at 10x?
The current leverage cap for any contract is published at pluang.com/akademi/blog/perubahan-leverage-4dec — check it before opening a new position on an unfamiliar contract, since leverage limits are set individually per pair rather than displayed as one platform-wide number in every part of the app. This is worth doing even for contracts you've traded before, in case the cap has since been updated.

Q: Why did Pluang introduce this leverage cap on BAT, FIL, and ZRX?
It's meant to keep the Crypto Futures ecosystem healthier and provide a safer, more stable trading experience across varying market conditions on these specific contracts. Lower liquidity or higher volatility on a given pair can justify a tighter cap than the 25x offered on Pluang's more actively traded contracts, reducing how quickly a large leveraged position could move the market or get liquidated.

Q: Does the cap affect positions I opened before it took effect?
No. Positions opened before a leverage cap applied to a given contract keep their original leverage, even if that leverage sits above the current maximum; the 10x cap applies to new leverage selections on BAT, FIL, or ZRX going forward, not retroactively to positions already open, and any TP/SL orders on those positions remain valid.

Q: Can the leverage cap on a contract change again in the future?
Pluang reviews leverage caps as part of its ongoing risk management, so limits on any given contract can be adjusted; always check the official announcement page for the current cap on your chosen pair rather than relying on what you remember from a previous trade, since a cap that applied last month may not still apply today.
