Market parameters

A market's settings determine its costs, limits, and waiting periods. Use Deployments for the current values and owners. This page identifies which settings matter to your action. Each linked page explains the behavior.

Settings can reach existing positions​

The market owner controls market settings. The oracle owner controls price rules. The treasury owner controls the protocol fee share. For the change process and any delay, read Governance.

Opening a position does not lock its settings

Changes to fee rates, margin requirements, curves, and limits can affect positions and orders you already hold. An order keeps its recorded execution fee. Added size keeps its recorded decrease lock.
