Profit and loss calculation
OKX's BTCUSDC futures and ETHUSDC futures are quoted at the price of BTC/USD index and ETH/USD index, and all margin requirements, profits and losses are calculated in USDC. If a user's long position value is 1 BTC (10,000 BTCUSDC futures contracts with face value of 0.0001 BTC), when the BTC price rises by $100, the user's profit will be 100 USDC.
Pnl calculation
PnL of long positions = Face value * Number of contracts * Avg. close price – Face value * Number of contracts * Avg. open price
PnL of short positions = Contract size × Number of contracts × Avg. open price - Contract size × Number of contracts × Avg. close price
Note: Avg. close price and Avg. Open price are both quoted as USD, and Pnl are settled as USDC

If users meet the conditions of different fee tiers in terms of spot trading volume, total trading volume of futures and perpetual contracts (USDT-margined, USDC-margined and crypto-margined), options trading volume and total assets, they will enjoy the fee discount of the highest fee tier.
For example, if a user's 30-day spot trading volume is 20,000,000 USD (VIP 2); his total trading volume of futures and perpetual contracts (USDT-margined, USDC-margined and crypto-margined) in the last 30 days is 200,000,000 USD (VIP 3); his 30-day options trading volume is 5,000,000 USD (VIP 1); and his total assets as of today is 5,000,000 USD (VIP 4), he will enjoy fee discounts in all markets as a VIP 4 user.
