Q1: What Is FameEX Futures Trial Fund Plus?

FameEX Futures Trial Fund Plus can be used together with your own funds as margin when opening futures positions. When trading fees, funding fees, or losses occur, the system will deduct your own funds first. Futures Trial Fund Plus will only cover the remaining amount when your own funds are insufficient.

 

Futures Trial Fund Plus cannot be withdrawn or transferred. It also cannot be used for spot trading, copy trading, or other unsupported trading products. Profits generated through eligible trading activities may be withdrawn, provided that the account complies with the applicable campaign terms, withdrawal requirements, and risk control rules.

 

 

Q2: How Can I Get Futures Trial Fund Plus, and Where Can I Check It?

・How to Check Futures Trial Fund Plus History Details?
You can view details in [Futures Account] - [Transaction History]. Each trial fund entry is marked with a unique ‘Coupon ID.’ The fund transaction records clearly will show the amounts of fees, funding fees, or losses separately by the trial fund and the user’s own funds. This allows users to easily check how the trial fund was applied and deducted.

 

 

Q3: How Much of My Own Funds Do I Need to Claim Futures Trial Fund Plus?

The amount of available own funds required in the Cross Margin Account is calculated based on the value and deduction ratio of the Trial Fund Plus coupon:

Required available own funds in Cross Margin = Trial Fund amount × (1 − Deduction ratio) ÷ Deduction ratio

 

For example, you have a 100 USDT Futures Trial Fund Plus coupon with its deduction ratio of 30%.

 

100 × 70% ÷ 30% ≈ 233.33 USDT

 

The required amount will be rounded up. The user must therefore have at least 234 USDT in their own available funds under Cross Margin before the coupon can be claimed. Claim requirements may vary between coupons. The amount shown on the claim page will apply, so users do not need to calculate it manually.

 

 

Q4: How Are Fees and Losses Deducted from the Futures Trial Fund Plus?

As long as there are available real funds in your Futures Account, trading fees, funding fees, and losses will be deducted from those real funds first. Futures Trial Fund Plus will only cover the remaining amount when the user’s own funds are insufficient.

 

Scenario 1: The User’s Own Funds Are Sufficient

Let’s assume your account contains 100 USDT in your own funds and 100 USDT in the Futures Trial Fund Plus. The trading generates 40 USDT in trading fees, funding fees, or losses.

 

Because the available own funds are sufficient, the system will deduct the full 40 USDT from the user’s own funds. The Futures Trial Fund Plus balance will not be used.

 

*After settlement, the account will have 60 USDT in the user’s own funds and 100 USDT in Futures Trial Fund Plus.

 

 

Scenario 2: The User’s Own Funds Are Insufficient

Let’s assume there are 100 USDT as your own funds and 100 USDT as Futures Trial Fund Plus in your account. The trading generates 120 USDT in trading fees, funding fees, or losses.

 

The system will first deduct the full 100 USDT from your own funds. It will then deduct the remaining 20 USDT from the Futures Trial Fund Plus.

 

*After settlement, the account will have 0 USDT in the user’s own funds and 80 USDT in Futures Trial Fund Plus.

 

 

Scenario 3: Fees or Losses Exceed the Account’s Available Funds

Let’s assume the account has 100 USDT as your own funds and 100 USDT as Futures Trial Fund Plus. The trading generates 250 USDT in fees or losses.

 

The system will deduct 100 USDT from your own funds and 100 USDT from the Futures Trial Fund Plus. The remaining 50 USDT exceeds the amount available in the account and will be handled according to FameEX liquidation, forced liquidation, margin call, and other applicable risk management rules.

 

Actual settlement results may be affected by market prices, liquidity, margin ratios, and system risk controls. Please refer to the final account records.

 

 

Q5: What Is the Difference Between Futures Trial Fund Plus and Futures Trial Fund?

Both types of trial funds can be used with the user’s own funds as margin for opening futures positions under Cross Margin. The main difference is how trading fees and losses are settled.

Q6: Can Futures Trial Fund Plus and Futures Trial Fund Be Used at the Same Time?

No. Only one type of Futures Trial Fund can be active in the same account at any given time. Futures Trial Fund and Futures Trial Fund Plus cannot be used together. They will not be combined within the same order or position.

 

Users can check the currently active type under [Trial Fund Details]. Opening margin, occupied margin, and fee deductions will follow the rules of the active Trial Fund.

 

Futures Trial Fund and Futures Trial Fund Plus use different fees and loss deduction methods. For the usage rules, supported scenarios, and restrictions of the Futures Trial Fund, please refer to this guide here: https://www.fameex.com/en-US/support/swap/futures-trial-fund-rules

 

 

Q7: How Is My Margin Released When I Reduce a Position with Futures Trial Fund Plus?

This process involves margin management rather than the settlement of trading fees or losses. Therefore, the own-funds priority deduction rule does not directly apply.

 

Let’s assume a position has an initial margin of 100 USDT. This amount consists of 50 USDT in the user’s own funds and 50 USDT in the Futures Trial Fund Plus.

 

When a position is reduced, the system releases the corresponding position margin based on the reduction ratio. If the user reduces the position by 50%, the system will release 50 USDT in position margin. If the position’s fund composition has not otherwise changed, the system will release:

 

* 25 USDT in the user’s own funds

* 25 USDT in Futures Trial Fund Plus

 

If the position does not contain enough releasable own funds to cover the required margin release, the system will first release the available amount of the user’s own funds. Futures Trial Fund Plus will cover the remaining portion. This ensures that the total released margin matches the actual position reduction ratio. The final released amount will depend on the margin composition of the position at the time of reduction and the system calculation.

 

 

Q8: What Trading Restrictions Apply When Using Futures Trial Fund Plus?

While Futures Trial Fund Plus is active:

 

  • It can only be used under Cross Margin.
  • Users cannot open or increase an Isolated Margin position.
  • All Cross Margin positions must remain in the same direction.
  • Users cannot hold opposite positions in the same trading pair.
  • Users cannot hold opposite positions across different trading pairs.
  • Users cannot place orders that may create an opposite position.
  • Wash trading, self-trading, hedging-based arbitrage, and other abusive activities are prohibited.

 

Isolated Margin positions opened before the Futures Trial Fund Plus was claimed may still receive additional margin. Users may also reduce or close those positions. However, the position size cannot be increased.

 

 

Q9: Under What Circumstances Will Futures Trial Fund Plus Be Reclaimed?

The system will reclaim the remaining Futures Trial Fund Plus balance when all of the following conditions are met:

 

  • Futures Trial Fund Plus has been used to cover trading fees, funding fees, or losses.
  • All positions have been closed.
  • All open orders have been canceled or terminated.
  • The Futures Account has no remaining balance from the user’s own funds.

 

If Futures Trial Fund Plus was only used as opening margin and never covered any fees or losses, it will not normally be reclaimed immediately after all positions are closed. The remaining balance may continue to be used until it expires. Futures Trial Fund Plus may also be reclaimed when it expires or when the account triggers FameEX risk control rules.

 

 

The FameEX Trial Fund system offers flexible margin support but operates under strict rules. To ensure smooth trading, users are advised to monitor trial fund amounts, personal balance levels, and expiration times carefully, and confirm that no related positions with trial funds are open before initiating transfers.
