Key timeline
BingX publishes the maintenance margin rate update announcement.
Updated maintenance margin rate rules for the APP perpetual pair take effect.
Who may be affected
- Users with no open APP perpetual position who open a new APP position on or after 13 November 2026 (UTC).
- Users holding existing APP perpetual positions, whose maintenance margin rate is stated to remain unchanged.
Impact analysis
The confirmed operational scope is narrow: only the APP perpetual pair is listed, and the new maintenance margin rate applies to new positions opened where the user has no open position in that pair. For users already holding an APP position, the announcement explicitly says the rate is unaffected, including after adding margin or reversing the position. Because the source does not publish the previous or new rate values, it is not possible to determine from this material whether the required maintenance margin for a newly opened APP position rises, falls, or stays the same. The announcement also restates general definitions of notional value, maintenance margin, and maintenance amount, but does not connect them to a specific numeric change for APP.
What the announcement does not say
The source does not disclose the previous or new maintenance margin rate values for APP, the tier thresholds involved, or whether other pairs will follow. It also does not explain the reason for the change beyond a general reference to trading experience.
Risk notes
- The announcement does not state the direction of the rate change, so users cannot assess from this source alone whether new APP positions will require more or less margin.
- Maintenance margin relates to liquidation thresholds; the source does not quantify any effect on liquidation levels for new APP positions.
- BingX reserves the right to amend, change, or cancel the announcement at any time without prior notice, per its stated disclaimer.
