2.2 Competitive Advantages of Electra for Perpetual Futures Trading

  1. Instant Web3 Wallet Integration

Electra supports direct connections with any Web3 wallet, including MetaMask and WalletConnect, ensuring seamless and secure access to decentralized trading. No registration, KYC, or sharing of personal information with third parties is required.

  1. High Liquidity

Electra combines proprietary liquidity data with sources from leading centralized exchanges(CEX) like Binance, OKX, and others. This ensures maximum order book depth and minimal spreads, often achieving zero or even negative spreads. Such a system guarantees swift and precise order execution, even during high trading volumes, while minimizing slippage risks.

  1. Flexible Leverage

Electra offers leverage options ranging from 1x to 100x, allowing users to tailor their trading strategies to suit their preferences, from low-risk approaches to aggressive tactics.

  1. Low Fees

Electra provides one of the most competitive fee structures in the market:

  • Funding Fees: Fixed at -0.01% per day.

  • Maker/Taker Fees: 0.02% and 0.04%, respectively, significantly lower than many similar platforms.

  1. Innovative User Interface. Electra integrates TradingView charts, offering industry-standard tools that include:

  • A full suite of indicators.

  • Intuitive analysis tools.

  • Customizable chart options for optimal user convenience.

The interface supports easy placement of market, limit, and stop orders, making the platform equally user-friendly for both professionals and beginners.

6. Automatic Risk Management

Electra's platform features an advanced automatic risk management system designed to ensure that traders never incur a negative balance. Here's how it works:

A. Real-Time Margin Monitoring

The system continuously tracks the margin levels of traders' accounts. If the balance approaches a critical minimum, users receive a warning to top up their margin and protect their open positions.

B. Forced Position Closure

If the margin level falls below the maintenance threshold and the user does not take action, the system automatically closes positions. This prevents losses from escalating into a negative balance.

Insurance Fund Usage

In cases of sudden market movements exceeding the margin level, the platform's insurance fund covers potential losses. This ensures that users are not held financially responsible for amounts exceeding their deposit.

Cross-Margin System

Electra employs a cross-margin mechanism, utilizing the entire available balance to maintain open positions. This provides additional protection against liquidation.

Why It Matters

This system allows traders to operate with confidence, knowing their risks are capped at their deposited funds. It is especially valuable for New traders exploring leveraged trading and Experienced traders operating in highly volatile markets.

Electra ensures a secure and convenient trading experience, even in the most unpredictable market conditions.

7. Decentralization and Security

Electra operates on a decentralized architecture, offering robust data protection and complete privacy. All you need to trade is a wallet. Your funds remain under your control, and the platform ensures the security of every transaction.

Electra merges the advantages of decentralized exchanges (DEX) with the user-friendliness of centralized exchanges (CEX), making it an ideal choice for perpetual futures trading.
