### Notes:
- Trading Parameter Adjustments: To mitigate market risks and optimize user trading experience, Gate will adjust trading parameters—including funding rates, tick size, maximum leverage, risk limits, and maintenance margin requirements—as needed based on actual market conditions.
- Mark Price Mechanism: The mark price follows standard calculation methods. As the external markets referenced by these indices operate on specific trading schedules, the index price will enter a price-hold mode during non-trading hours, continuing to use the last valid quote prior to that period. Users are advised to closely monitor the activity of external reference markets and set appropriate take-profit and stop-loss orders to mitigate risks arising from liquidity changes and price volatility.
