Introduction to Transaction Password

1. Description

The trading password consists of a 6-digit numerical code that must be confirmed before placing an order. Once the trading password is set, it must be entered for verification when engaging in Swap, Spot, Margin, and Futures Trading. However, for other trading types like Strategic Trading and API Trading, there is no requirement for verifying the trading password.

2. Management of Sub-Accounts

Sub-accounts do not have their own independent trading password and share the same password and activation status as the main account.

3. Preventive Mechanism Against Interruptions

Following verification of the trading password, there is no need to re-verify it if another transaction is conducted within 15 minutes.
