BINANCE CHANGED THE TICK SIZE FOR SEVERAL FUTURES. IT SEEMS LIKE A TRIFLE UNTIL YOU WORK WITH ORDERS.
Among the contracts in the update, for example, are SKDDUSDT and CSOPSKHYNIX2LUSDT.
For them, the tick size changed:
from 0.01 to 0.001.
What does that mean in simple terms?
Previously, the allowed prices looked something like this:
100.00
100.01
100.02
After reducing the tick size, you can set prices more precisely:
100.000
100.001
100.002
That is, tick size isn’t the minimum position size.
It’s the minimum step by which the ORDER PRICE can change.
Why reduce it?
A smaller step allows for more accurate order placement and may improve the structure of the order book.
Another point:
Binance separately noted that existing orders are not canceled due to the tick size change and continue to match using the old step.
For a normal manual trade, the difference may look insignificant.
For bots, API, and a large number of limit orders—no longer.
My takeaway:
In Futures, you should watch not only the chart.
Trading rules sometimes also change how exactly you can interact with the market.
