Preparations

• Register for a MEXC account – Visit the MEXC official website or download the official App, and sign up using your mobile number or email.
• Complete KYC verification – Complete identity verification to comply with platform requirements and unlock all trading features and withdrawal limits.
• Deposit USDT – MEXC supports various fiat‑to‑USDT purchase methods (credit card, bank transfer, etc.) as well as transfers from other crypto wallets. USDT (Tether) is a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US dollar and will be used as your trading margin and settlement currency.

Step 1 – Log in to the MEXC website

Step 2 – Search for the SAMSUNGUSDT trading pair

Step 3 – Understand the core trading parameters

• Price – The Futures pricing logic: Samsung Electronics KRW stock price ÷ real‑time USD/KRW exchange rate = USD‑denominated Futures price.
• Margin mode – Choose Cross (all available balance in your account is used as margin) or Isolated (only a specified amount is allocated as margin for this position, limiting losses).
• Leverage – Up to 20x. Leverage amplifies both potential profits and potential losses. Set a level that suits your risk tolerance.
• Fees – Newly listed product offers a limited‑time zero‑fee promotion.

Step 4 – Place an order to open a position

• Long (Buy Long) – Select "Buy Long" if you expect Samsung Electronics' stock price to rise.
• Short (Sell Short) – Select "Sell Short" if you expect the price to fall. This is a major advantage of MEXC Futures compared to traditional stock trading – the ability to profit even in a declining market.

• Limit order – Set a specific price and wait for the market to fill.
• Market order – Execute immediately at the current best market price – suitable when you want instant execution.

Step 5 – Close position and risk management

• Manual close – On the "Current Positions" page, select your open position and click the "Close" button. You can close at market price or set a limit close order.
• Set take‑profit / stop‑loss – While placing an order or holding a position, you can set a Take‑Profit (TP) and Stop‑Loss (SL) order. The system will automatically close the position when the price hits the preset level. This is one of the most important risk‑management tools in Futures trading – it is strongly recommended that you set a stop‑loss when opening a position.
• Position monitoring – MEXC provides real‑time P&L display and margin ratio alerts. Keep an eye on your position status.

4. Key Risks You Must Watch Out For

• Leverage risk – 20x leverage can amplify potential profits 20 times, but it can also amplify losses 20 times. If the market moves sharply against your position and you have not set a stop‑loss, you may lose your entire margin or be forced into liquidation. Always control leverage and position size according to your risk tolerance.
  • 
    
• Circuit breaker mechanism – Because MEXC's SAMSUNGUSDT Futures track the actual stock price on the Korea Exchange, if the underlying stock price fluctuates too violently, it may trigger the Korean market's circuit breaker. At that point, the corresponding MEXC Futures will suspend trading. During the suspension, orders cannot be executed, but positions will not be liquidated, and users can cancel pending orders. Monitor market conditions and subsequent announcements closely, and manage your positions accordingly.
  • 
    
• Corporate actions adjustments – Corporate actions such as dividends, stock splits, or reverse splits can cause price movements. MEXC will adjust positions accordingly (e.g., early settlement or position adjustments) based on market conditions. Users should monitor platform announcements and manage positions in advance to avoid unexpected losses due to rule changes.
  • 
    
• Geographic availability restrictions – Due to regulatory policies, the availability of Futures products may vary by region. Some jurisdictions may not allow trading of such products – please refer to the MEXC User Agreement for details. Before trading, confirm that your region is permitted to use MEXC's Futures services.
  • 
    
• Currency exchange rate risk – The pricing of SAMSUNGUSDT Futures depends on the USD/KRW exchange rate. Significant fluctuations in the Korean won against the US dollar will directly affect the USD‑denominated performance of the Futures and therefore your P&L. Even if Samsung Electronics' KRW stock price remains unchanged, exchange rate movements can cause the Futures price to change.
  • 
    
• Short‑term event risk – As noted earlier, short‑term events such as labor relations can materially affect Samsung's stock price. In May 2026, Samsung shares fell more than 2.5% due to a threatened union strike, then rebounded sharply and hit an all‑time high after a tentative wage agreement was reached. Citi analysts have noted that despite a strong memory upcycle, persistent labor disputes could lead to a substantial increase in employee bonus provisions, potentially negatively impacting 2026–2027 operating profit by approximately 10%–11%. Such short‑term events are non‑negligible risk variables in Futures trading.
