Q1: What Is FameEX Futures Trial Fund Plus?

FameEX Futures Trial Fund Plus is a type of trial fund that can be used together with the user’s own funds as margin for opening futures positions. It is used only as margin and cannot be used to offset trading fees, funding fees, or losses from closing positions.

Futures Trial Fund Plus cannot be withdrawn or transferred.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 Profits generated through eligible trading activities may be withdrawn, provided that the account complies with the applicable campaign terms, withdrawal requirements, and risk control rules.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?

Users may receive Futures Trial Fund Plus coupons through official FameEX events, registration tasks, deposit tasks, or other special events. After a coupon is issued, users must first go to [Rewards] > [Coupons] section. Confirm that the identity verification and other claim requirements have been met, then tap [Claim]. Once claimed, Futures Trial Fund Plus will be automatically credited to the Futures Account and activated immediately. No additional manual activation is required.

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

The amount of available user funds required in cross-margin mode to claim Futures Trial Fund Plus is calculated based on the value of the trial fund and the Fund Allocation Ratio set for the coupon:

Required available user funds in cross-margin mode = Trial fund Value × (1 − Fund Allocation Ratio) ÷ Fund Allocation Ratio

For example, you have a 100 USDT Futures Trial Fund Plus coupon with its Fund Allocation 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?

The Futures Trial Fund Plus is used only as margin for opening futures positions. It cannot be used to offset trading fees, funding fees, or losses from closing positions.

Opening fees, closing fees, funding fees, and losses from closing positions are all deducted from the user’s own funds. If the user’s own funds are insufficient, the system will not use Futures Trial Fund Plus to cover the shortfall. Instead, the position will be handled according to FameEX futures risk control rules, which may include position reduction, forced liquidation, and related deficit handling. Therefore, even if there is still an available Futures Trial Fund Plus balance, it cannot be used to pay trading-related fees or cover trading losses.

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

Both the standard Futures Trial Fund and Futures Trial Fund Plus can be used together with the user’s own funds as margin for opening futures positions. The key difference is whether the trial fund can be used to offset trading-related fees and losses.

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 go to the Trial Fund Details page to check which type of trial fund is currently active. The rules for opening positions, margin usage, release, and reclaim are determined by the trial fund type. The standard Futures Trial Fund may be used to offset eligible fees and losses according to its applicable rules. Futures Trial Fund Plus, however, is used only as margin for opening positions and does not offset trading fees, funding fees, or losses from closing positions.

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?

Once Futures Trial Fund Plus is used as margin for opening positions, the corresponding amount may be frozen for open orders or occupied by positions, depending on the actual order and position status.

When you reduce a position or cancel an unfilled order, the system will release the corresponding Futures Trial Fund Plus amount proportionally. The released amount will return to the available balance and can be reused for opening new positions, provided the usage requirements are met and the coupon remains valid.

If a position is reduced due to ADL or tiered position reduction, the system will only release the corresponding occupied Futures Trial Fund Plus amount. The trial fund will not be reclaimed solely because of the position reduction.

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?

Futures Trial Fund Plus can be used as margin for opening positions during its valid period. Any amount released after a position reduction or order cancellation will return to the available trial fund balance and can be reused for opening positions, provided the applicable usage requirements are met.

Futures Trial Fund Plus will be reclaimed if any of the following occurs:

• Coupon Expiration: The system will cancel related open orders, close related positions, and recover the Futures Trial Fund Plus.
• Fund Transfer: If funds are transferred in or out of the account, the system will cancel related open orders, close related positions, and recover the Futures Trial Fund Plus.
• Forced Liquidation: If a position is liquidated, the system will release the Futures Trial Fund Plus occupied by the position and recover it.
• Invalidation by the Platform: The Futures Trial Fund Plus will be invalidated and reclaimed according to the applicable platform rules.
• Claim a New Trial Fund: The currently active Futures Trial Fund Plus will be reclaimed according to the applicable rules.

Q10: Is Futures Trial Fund Plus Included in Estimated Liquidation Price and Margin Ratio Calculations?

No. Futures Trial Fund Plus is used only as margin for opening positions. It is not included when calculating the estimated liquidation price or margin ratio. Risk calculations are based on the user’s own funds and the actual risk status of the futures account.

If the account reaches the liquidation threshold, the system will execute forced liquidation according to FameEX futures risk control rules. The Futures Trial Fund Plus occupied by the affected position will then be released and recovered.

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.
