OKX to Apply Position Limits on Futures Contracts

To prevent market risks in futures contracts from being concentrated among a few traders and to guard against market manipulation, OKX will limit the position value per user for a single contract relative to the total position value on the platform.

With any contract, if the open positions and orders across the main and sub-accounts reach or exceed the maximum limits or the platform-wide position percentage threshold, position limit rules will apply to all accounts. Once these rules are in place, the system rejects any new opening orders in this contract. This rule doesn’t apply to reduce-only orders.

Refer to https://www.okx.com/help/position-limits-of-contracts for more details.
