Placing an Order

You choose:
  • Market — BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, or ZEC. Each market has its own maximum leverage and its own limit on total open Print deposits (see Specifications).
  • Cycle length — 24 hours on any market. BTC also offers 7 days and 30 days. This sets how often your order is checked for a fill and how much each payout covers.
  • Direction — Long or Short.
  • Target price — at least 0.5% away from the current mark price, and at most 10% on a 24-hour cycle, 20% on 7 days, or 40% on 30 days.
  • Leverage — 1× up to the market’s maximum: 40× on BTC, 25× on ETH, 20× on SOL and HYPE, 10× on ZEC.
  • Deposit — your locked margin, minimum $10. This is drawn from your Pacifica trading balance.
Your order’s notional is set by your deposit and leverage:
There’s no in-place edit once an order is live. To change your target, leverage, or cycle length, cancel the order and place a new one.

Cancelling & Withdrawing

Cancelling a Print order sends an “end” request, but the order stays active until the end of the current block. At that checkpoint it resolves one last time: it either fills (if the market reached your target) or returns your deposit to you. Either way, you still earn that block’s payout — cancelling never forfeits yield already in progress. This is worth weighing before you pick a long cycle: a 30-day order cancelled on day two still resolves at that block’s checkpoint, four weeks out. When an order fills, closes, or is cancelled, your funds — the deposit plus earned yield, or the position it opened — return to your main Pacifica trading balance. Each Print order is its own margin bucket, separate from your other balances until it resolves.
