To further enhance the strategic flexibility of perpetual futures trading, Gate has previously launched the **Hedge Split Mode** on the perpetual futures platform. To meet the automated trading needs of API users, we will upgrade the relevant perpetual futures API endpoints on **April 30, 2026** **UTC** to officially support **Hedge Split Mode**

### 1. Feature Overview
**Hedge Split Mode** allows users to simultaneously hold positions across multiple directions and margin modes within the same perpetual contract market, including: Cross Long, Cross Short, Isolated Long, and Isolated Short.
Under Isolated mode, long and short positions can be configured with independent leverage settings, which are also independent from the leverage configuration of Cross positions.
For more details, please refer to the product announcement: https://www.gate.com/announcements/article/49810

### 3. Notes

* **Lead Trader Restriction:** Users currently in Lead Trader mode are not supported to switch to Hedge Split Mode. Please end your lead trading session before switching modes.
* **Risk Acknowledgment:** Before switching to Hedge Split Mode, please ensure you have fully understood the associated risks and margin rules.
* **Leverage Field Migration:** The original leverage-related fields leverage and cross_leverage_limit will remain available. When using Hedge Split Mode, it is recommended to use the new field lever to obtain the actual position leverage.
* **Margin Mode Determination:** Please use the pos_margin_mode field to determine whether a position/order is cross margin or isolated margin ( cross / isolated ). Do not rely on the original logic of checking whether leverage is 0 (where leverage ≠ 0 indicates isolated margin, and leverage = 0 indicates cross margin).
