Multiple Markets Moving in Tandem: Trading Logic Is Being Redefined
Historically, traders could concentrate on a single market—such as cryptocurrencies or stock indices—to establish relatively stable trading strategies. However, recent years have brought significant shifts in market structure, with asset classes becoming increasingly interconnected.
Capital flows in the crypto market now intersect with forex, stock indices, and commodities, creating cross-market influences. Price triggers are distributed across multiple markets, making single-market strategies both risk-concentrated and prone to missing opportunities that emerge simultaneously elsewhere.
Gate TradFi: Integrating Traditional Market Pricing Into Crypto Accounts
Gate TradFi contracts are designed not to move users away from crypto, but to leverage CFDs (Contracts for Difference) to bring traditional financial market price action directly into existing crypto trading accounts.
Traders remain focused on price volatility rather than asset ownership or settlement processes, allowing stocks, forex, precious metals, and commodities to blend seamlessly into familiar crypto trading rhythms with minimal friction.

Unified Accounts for Multi-Market Integration
Gate TradFi is fully integrated into Gate’s original system. Users can participate in multiple market instruments through a single trading interface, with no need for additional registration or platform switching. Supported markets include:
- Major global stocks
- Forex currency pairs
- Stock indices
- Gold, silver, and other precious metals
- Crude oil and other commodities
This unified account structure streamlines capital allocation and strategy adjustments within one environment, greatly reducing the time and psychological costs of cross-platform operations.
USDx Pricing: Preserving Crypto Funding Practices
To eliminate currency conversion issues between markets, Gate TradFi uses USDx as its internal pricing unit, maintaining a 1:1 peg with USDT.
Users simply transfer USDT into their TradFi account to start trading TradFi contracts directly, without exchanging currencies or involving fiat. This design enables rapid position adjustments across markets, aligning capital flow efficiency with crypto trading logic.
CFD Framework: Transparent and Predictable Trading Rules
Gate TradFi contracts adopt mature CFD market standards, providing clear and transparent rules, including:
- Fixed trading hours
- Full-margin system
- Ability to take both long and short positions on the same instrument
- Overnight fees applied during market closure according to policy
This structure helps traditional finance traders adapt quickly and offers crypto users a robust risk management framework.
Leverage and Fees Structured by Risk Tier
Given the varying volatility across markets, Gate TradFi employs tiered leverage and fee structures:
- Forex and index products: up to 500x leverage
- Stock CFDs: up to 5x leverage
Fees start at $0.018 per transaction. Transparent fee structures allow traders to estimate costs during strategy planning, avoiding hidden charges that could affect performance.
MT5 Support: Professional Analysis Meets Mobile Trading
Gate TradFi contracts support MT5 (MetaTrader 5), enabling users to monitor funds, positions, and trading history in both MT5 and the Gate App.
MT5’s technical analysis tools help traders make more precise market assessments. The system also provides real-time risk control based on margin ratios, triggering liquidation mechanisms when risk thresholds are reached to mitigate extreme market shocks.
Evolving from Crypto Platform to Multi-Market Gateway
With TradFi contracts, Gate is transforming from a crypto asset trading platform into an integrated gateway for multi-market price participation.
Traders can track price movements in crypto, forex, indices, and commodities within a single account, adjusting strategies dynamically as risks and opportunities shift. As volatility sources diversify, the ability to quickly reposition across markets directly impacts overall asset allocation flexibility.
Incentive Events: Accelerating User Adoption
Alongside product features, Gate is launching exclusive TradFi promotional campaigns. From February 2 to 22, the platform is hosting a TradFi launch celebration, with a $150,000 reward pool including physical prizes such as gold and silver.
