Introduction
What is Split Position?
Checklist
- Independent sub-positions: Each new open order creates a separate sub-position.
- Per-position closing: Market close an entire sub-position with one tap
- Position history: Closed sub-positions appear in Position History with open/close time, entry and exit price, closed size, and realized PnL and PnL%.
- How to enable
- Go to the futures trading settings > preferences page on the OKX app or website and turn on the Split Position switch.
- No. Each new open order always creates a new sub-position. Adding to an existing sub-position is not supported in this version.
- How does TP/SL work on sub-positions?
Notes
Split Position lets you manage each perpetual futures entry as its own independent position. When enabled, every new open order creates a separate sub-position with its own position size, entry price, PnL, margin, and take-profit/stop-loss (TP/SL) - instead of being merged into one combined position.This is designed for traders who run multiple strategies on the same contract and want to track and manage each entry independently, without opening sub-accounts.
Key capabilities
Per-position details: Each sub-position independently displays entry price, PnL and PnL% , position size, margin, mark price, and TP/SL.
Per-position TP/SL: Set take-profit and stop-loss on a single sub-position, with the trigger set by PnL%, PnL amount, or price change %. When triggered, only that sub-position is closed - others are unaffected.
Details follow the official OKX help article; this page is a learning checklist, not an official mirror.
