#### **Notes (For Non-Crypto Pairs)**

* You cannot increase or open a new position within 30 minutes prior to market close, but you can reduce or fully close your position during this period.
* **High-leverage positions (10x or above)** are **automatically closed 30 minutes before market close** to prevent overnight exposure during off-market hours.
* During market closed hours, no trading activity is allowed - you cannot open, modify, or close positions. Unrealized PnL continues to update, but trading resumes only when the market reopens.
