Question for high IQ math people:
> I go long.
> I set TP for 1%, at which point I want to fully hedge the position.
Do I set a limit sell order for 201% of the position to achieve this?
If not, what's correct?

Depends on what "size" means.
On FTX, "size" means "number of the thing you're trading".
On inverted orderbooks, "size" generally means "number of the currency you're using"--often USD.
And what do you mean by "fully hedge"? Do you want to end with pure USD or BTC?
Oh wow, thank you for chiming in!
I am looking to be 100% in synthetic USD after completing a trade. Does that clarify?

Sorry I dont think I answered for “size”.
So let’s say “size” = 100% of balance @ execution price (with BTC as collateral)
Then I successfully complete a long that I close at +1% from avg entry
I am looking to close it and be fully hedged accounting for the new profits
