Introduction
On September 19, 2025, Binance will implement an adjustment to the tick size for several USDⓈ-M Perpetual Futures Contracts to enhance market liquidity and improve user trading experiences.
What is Tick Size?
Tick size refers to the minimum increment that the price of a financial asset can change. The adjustment in tick size can significantly affect how orders are placed and filled in the market.
New Tick Size Details
The new tick size adjustments for USDⓈ-M Perpetual Futures Contracts are as follows:
| Contract Type | Trading Pair | Before | After |
|———————|————–|———-|———-|
| USDⓈ-M Futures | AVNTUSDT | 0.00001 | 0.0001 |
| USDⓈ-M Futures | SUIUSDC | 0.00001 | 0.0001 |
Key Points
- The updated tick sizes will take effect on September 19, 2025, at 07:00 (UTC).
- The change will not impact the existing trading operations for USDⓈ-M Futures.
- API users will need to adjust their settings accordingly and can retrieve the latest tick size information via the endpoint GET /fapi/v1/exchangeInfo.
- Importantly, all existing orders will remain unaffected by this change; they will continue matching at the original tick size until they are completed or canceled.
Impact on Trading Strategies
Adjusting Trading Strategies
With the new tick sizes, traders may need to reassess their current trading strategies. The broader implication is that tighter tick sizes could enhance execution efficiency but may also result in a more competitive trading environment. Therefore, users are encouraged to review their strategies accordingly.
Potential Market Amplications
- Increased Liquidity: With smaller tick sizes, it’s anticipated that more orders will be filled, thus enhancing market liquidity.
- Tighter Spreads and Lower Costs: Tighter tick sizes may result in more efficient pricing and reduced costs for traders.
