About MarginPad
MarginPad is a free crypto-futures toolkit: a paper-trading terminal with live prices, a multi-chart workspace, a scored pair screener, an economic calendar, liquidation data and precision calculators — with no ads, no paywalls and no deposit, ever.
Why it exists
Most beginners learn futures by losing real money, and most trading tools are buried inside exchange interfaces or smothered in ads. MarginPad fixes that: practice on real live prices with fake money in the Paper Trade terminal, plan every entry with clean calculators, and read the market with the screener, charts and live liquidation data — 20,000+ practice trades have been opened so far.
What you get
Paper Trade — a demo futures terminal on live prices, long & short up to 1000× with SL/TP, trailing stops and real liquidations (of fake money). Charts — a multi-chart workspace with indicators, drawing tools and AI chart analysis. Screener — 200+ pairs scored 0–100 with RSI, MACD and trend. Calculators — liquidation, position size, PnL, DCA, take-profit, risk:reward and cross-margin. Plus the economic calendar, 24h liquidation data, Fear & Greed index and a rewards program that pays small amounts of real USDT for using the tools.
Editorial standards & data sources
Everything here is written to be accurate first. Market data comes from established providers — Bybit, Coinglass, CoinGecko and DefiLlama — and the exact formula behind every calculator is published, so nothing is a black box. Our guides are educational, not financial or tax advice; where a topic touches regulation or taxes we describe the general rules and tell you to confirm your own situation with a qualified professional. Pages are dated, revisited as rules change, and corrected quickly when a reader flags an error — accuracy is the whole point.

A note on risk
MarginPad is an educational tool, not financial advice. Calculations are estimates and may differ from your exchange. Crypto futures trading carries a substantial risk of loss — never trade money you can't afford to lose.
