What is the Floating Price Mechanism?

Floating pricing means your ad price automatically adjusts in real time based on market conditions. You only need to set a premium rate, and the system will calculate your final price based on the current market price.

Simply put, when the market price changes, your ad price updates automatically.

  

  

I. How Is the Price Calculated?

  

Your ad price is determined by:

  • The current market reference price (e.g., CoinMarketCap, Binance, etc.)

  • The premium rate you set

The calculation formula is: 

Trading Price = Market Price × (1 ± Premium Rate)

  

  

II. What Is the Premium Rate?

  

The premium rate is the percentage by which you adjust the market price, either above or below it.

  

  

III. Positive Premium (Above Market Price)

  

A positive premium means your price is higher than the market price.

  

Examples:

  • BTC market price: 30,000 CNY, premium rate: +5%
    👉 Trading price = 30,000 × (1 + 5%) = 31,500 CNY

  • ETH market price: 2,000 CNY, premium rate: +5%
    👉 Trading price = 2,000 × (1 + 5%) = 2,100 CNY

  

  

IV. Negative Premium (Below Market Price)

   

A negative premium means your price is lower than the market price.

  

Examples:

  • BTC market price: 30,000 CNY, premium rate: -5%
    👉 Trading price = 30,000 × (1 - 5%) = 28,500 CNY

  • ETH market price: 2,000 CNY, premium rate: -5%
    👉 Trading price = 2,000 × (1 - 5%) = 1,900 CNY

  

  

V. Tips

   

  • You can set a different premium rate for each ad.

  • Floating prices update in real time with market movements, so please set your premium carefully.

  • Adjust your premium rate based on market conditions to improve execution efficiency.
