Understanding Unexpected Balance Increases on OKEx
If your OKEx account displays an unexpectedly higher balance, several factors could be at play:
Common Causes for Balance Discrepancies
- Interest accrual: OKEx calculates interest every 8 hours. Repaying debts before settlement avoids interest charges.
- Spread adjustments: When spreads drop by $50, the system automatically executes weekly/quarterly contract rebalancing ("closing X spread positions").
- Asset valuation updates: Fluctuations in digital asset valuations may temporarily affect displayed balances.
