An Ode to Zero Overloads (and Low Latency…)
Being the first to market with such an innovative and successful product comes with some technical baggage - it’s hard to safely fix the plane while flying it. We’re the first to admit that overloads have meant that we got some justified criticism over the last few years, and as we’ve said many times before, addressing this issue has been a huge priority for us.
So we’re greatly encouraged that days like yesterday - with record trading volumes and zero overloads and consistent low latency on BitMEX - have become a distinct pattern in recent times rather than a one-off. After extensive platform upgrades over the past few months, we’ve seen a massive improvement in capacity, performance and latency.

We are making it easier and more intuitive to trade on BitMEX by changing the Lot Size, or minimum trading unit, on our popular XBTUSD Swap and XBT futures (XBTM21 and XBTU21) from 1 contract to 100 contracts, effective 04:30 UTC on 8 June 2021.
We ask that traders adjust their positions, strategies, and systems to account for this change - especially amending open positions and orders to reflect the new Lot Size.
We expect a 10-second pause in trading starting at 04:30 UTC on 8 June 2021 to apply the Lot Size change. Messages sent during this time will be queued and processed only once the change has been completed.
Amending Lot Sizes will bring clear benefits for our users, including more responsive markets and better platform scaling with higher XBT prices. It also addresses a persistent issue with rounding the value of small position sizes, which has created headaches for some users.
