To ensure price and quantity continuity for stock futures contracts after the underlying asset undergoes a stock split, reverse split, or other corporate action, and to reduce order handling risks caused by such corporate actions, Gate will adjust the relevant stock contracts.

During the adjustment period, the affected contracts will enter a temporary suspension status. The system will cancel unfilled ordinary limit orders and re-place them according to the corporate action adjustment ratio. Users are advised to manage their positions and order risks in advance.

During the adjustment period, all functions related to the affected contracts will be temporarily unavailable, including opening positions, closing positions, creating/canceling/amending orders, funding rate calculation, mark price, index price, and forced liquidation. Mark price and index price services will also stop updating during the adjustment period. Strategies and positions created by contract trading bots will be terminated and settled.

Order Handling

For ordinary limit orders that remain unfilled before the adjustment, the system will first cancel the original open orders and then re-place them according to the corporate action adjustment ratio. After the orders are re-placed, the order price and quantity will be adjusted proportionally.

If the user has manually canceled the relevant open orders before the stock split/reverse split takes effect, or if there are no valid open orders for the stock contract under the account, the system will not re-place any orders after the adjustment is completed.

Price precision handling rules:

Buy order prices will be rounded down according to price precision, while sell order prices will be rounded up according to price precision.

If the adjusted order does not meet trading rules such as price precision, quantity precision, minimum order size, or maximum order size, the order may be canceled by the system.

Conditional Order Handling

For unfinished TP/SL orders, planned orders, conditional orders, strategy orders, and other conditional orders before the adjustment, the system will cancel these orders during the adjustment period.

After trading resumes, clients should promptly review their positions and order status and manually recreate any required conditional orders if needed.

API User Notes

During this adjustment, the system will first cancel the user’s original open orders and then re-place them according to the new adjustment ratio. If there are no open orders before the adjustment, the system will not replace any orders.

After the orders are re-placed:

  1. The order_id will change;

  2. The text field will remain unchanged;

  3. The order price and quantity will be adjusted according to the stock split/reverse split ratio.

WebSocket Order Channel

For orders canceled by the system due to the stock split/reverse split adjustment, the futures.orders WebSocket channel will push finish_as = split. Clients are advised to handle this status according to their own business requirements.
