Introducing Fixed Risk on Bitunix: Smarter Position Sizing
Bitunix has introduced Fixed Risk, a tool that calculates futures order size based on a trader's predefined loss limit, entry price, and stop loss level.
Cryptocurrency derivatives exchange Bitunix has rolled out a new order-sizing tool called Fixed Risk, which the company says is the first such feature offered by any crypto exchange. The tool is designed to help futures traders automate position sizing based on their risk tolerance.
Fixed Risk works by taking three inputs from the trader: the maximum loss they are willing to accept on the order, the stop-loss exit price, and the planned entry price. The system then calculates the appropriate order quantity and automatically attaches a stop-loss condition to the order. The final order is submitted as a standard limit or market order.
According to Bitunix, the feature aims to reduce the stress and hesitation that often accompanies manual position sizing, especially in fast-moving markets. By forcing traders to define their risk before entering a trade, it encourages a more disciplined, risk-first approach. The exchange cautioned that actual losses may vary from the set amount due to slippage, rapid price movements, or existing positions.
Bitunix, which claims over 3 million users across more than 100 countries, positions Fixed Risk as part of its broader effort to offer professional-grade tools for both novice and experienced traders. The exchange also offers up to 200x leverage, deep liquidity, and a K-Line Ultra charting system. The Fixed Risk feature is available immediately on the platform.
