Binance spot vs. futures: a neutral guide to leverage and liquidation On a centralized exchange, spot trading generally means buying or selling the underlying asset without an automatic expiry. Futures are derivative contracts whose value tracks an underlying market and may use margin. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses; it can also trigger liquidation when maintenance-margin requirements are no longer met. Important distinctions include funding payments, contract specifications, mark price, liquidation price, margin mode, and whether collateral is isolated or shared across positions. A displayed liquidation estimate is not a guarantee during fast markets, gaps, outages, or thin liquidity. Fees and slippage can materially affect results.
