What is Futures Martingale?

I. What Is Martingale?

The Martingale strategy is based on a simple principle: doubling the position size after every loss.

The idea is that a single winning trade can recover all previous losses and generate a profit equal to the initial stake.

In other words, each loss is followed by an increased position size, so that the next successful trade offsets the cumulative losses and yields a net gain.

When a trade results in a loss, the strategy recommends doubling the next trade to compensate, aiming to secure a profit. By capitalizing on market rebounds (long positions) or pullbacks (short positions), the Martingale strategy seeks to reduce overall losses and support potential long-term growth.

II. How to Set Up Futures Martingale on HTX

On the HTX app, go to the Bots page and select Futures Martingale.

  1. In the interface, you can explore active bots under the Recommended Bots tab to view their real-time performance.
  2. To create a custom Futures Martingale bot, switch to the Manual tab. Here, you can configure your bot by setting the trading direction (Long or Short), price scale, take-profit ratio, safety orders, initial order amount, and leverage. The Advanced Settings provide additional controls, including trigger price (Market or Limit), investment multiplier, stop-loss, and rounds (which automatically restart the bot with the same parameters once it closes).

III. How Futures Martingale Bot Works

Direction Selection: Traders choose a direction based on their market outlook, such as “buy low, sell high” in a ranging market or commit to a single direction in a trending market.

Initial Margin Setup: Set the starting margin for your first trade, for example, 100 USDT.

Take-Profit and Stop-Loss Settings:

Take-Profit (TP): Set a fixed percentage (e.g., 1%). When this target is reached, the position closes, and the bot automatically restarts using the initial margin.

Martingale Stop-Loss (SL): Instead of a traditional stop-loss, this mechanism triggers when the price moves unfavorably. If the price drops by a set percentage relative to the initial order baseline, the bot will close the position at market price.

Rounds: Operate on an automatic cycle. A new trading round starts automatically after each successful take-profit. The bot continues to loop until it reaches the set round limit, hits the stop-loss price, or is manually stopped by the user.

VI. Futures Martingale Trading Bot Parameters

1. Price Scale: The percentage difference in price between consecutive safety orders, calculated relative to the quote currency.

2. TP Target: Once the take-profit price is triggered and filled, the current strategy round ends. A new round will start immediately based on your preset conditions. If a trigger price is set, the strategy will wait for the market to reach that price before restarting.

3. Initial Order Amount: The value of the first order executed at the start of each trading round.

4. Safety Order Amount: Successive orders placed during a round to lower the average entry cost and reach the TP target faster.

5. Safety Orders: The maximum number of safety orders allowed per round. The actual number executed may depend on your available margin.

6. Auto-Margin Transfer: When the margin level reaches a high-risk threshold, this feature automatically transfers funds from your Futures account to the active bot to help prevent liquidation. You can set a maximum amount for these automatic transfers.

7. Volume Scale: The factor applied to the next safety order amount. affecting how effectively the strategy averages down your entry price. For example, with a base amount of 100 USDT and a multiplier of 2, safety orders are placed as follows:

100 = (2^0 × 100) 200 = (2^1 × 100) 400 = (2^2 × 100) , and so on.

Stop After Current Round: When enabled, the bot will terminate automatically at the end of the current round.

Trigger Price: The bot starts running once the last price reaches the trigger price you set.
