Cornix allows you to configure your Position Mode when trading on Hedge-Mode supported exchanges like Binance, Binance Coin-M, Bybit USDT, Bitget Futures, Bingx Futures and OKX. This setting determines whether you can hold both long and short positions simultaneously or only one direction at a time.
⚙️ What Is Position Mode?
One-Way Mode: You can open only one position (long or short) per symbol at a time. Opening a position in the opposite direction will close the existing one.
Hedge Mode: You can hold both long and short positions on the same symbol simultaneously. Useful for more complex trading strategies.
⚠️ Important Note: Switching between modes requires all positions and open orders to be closed first.
How Does It Work?
Bybit USDT: Position mode is configurable per symbol, so you can set "Hedge Mode" or "One-Way Mode" for each symbol separately.
Binance Futures: Position mode is applied account-wide, so it's either "Hedge Mode" or "One-Way Mode" for all symbols.
OKX Futures: Position mode is applied account-wide. Select either Hedge Mode or One‑Way Mode for your entire futures account, to apply for all symbols. Learn more.
BingX Futures: Position mode is applied account-wide. Learn more.
Bitget Futures: Position mode is applied account-wide. Learn more.
⚠️ Important Note:
When you configure the position mode via Cornix, it automatically updates your settings on the exchange.
However, if you change the mode manually on the exchange, it will not sync back to Cornix.
