KuCoin Futures will adjust the maximum leverage and risk limit of 17 perpetual contracts in Isolated Margin mode on October 23, 2026, 10:00-11:00 UTC.

- Maximum leverage is largely unchanged (top tier stays at 20x), but ASMLUSDT gets a boost from 10x to 20x with a reduced maintenance margin rate
- Existing positions are liquidated based on the current risk limit level; newly opened positions use the new levels
- KuCoin says it may adjust risk-control parameters further based on market conditions and liquidity
