• Based on the options right, there are call options and put options for each asset. Here we take BTC options as an example:

• There are buyer and seller for a single options contract, and the corresponding rights of each party are as below:

• The digital assets required in options trading (call & put) for buyer and seller:

Note: If the seller buys to close positions of put options, the premium required to pay will be deducted from the performance margin, hence there is no need to freeze premium.

For details of premium and performance margin, please click>>>

•  An Example of call options seller:

1. Take BTC options as an example. Since performance margin (underlying asset: BTC) is required to be frozen when selling to open positions of call options, the seller has to transfer BTC to options account first.

Click “Transfer” button (or the “Trading Management - Contract Assets” on the navigation bar to enter into the asset page, then click “transfer”). If you don’t have digital assets in options account, click “Buy” to enter into the OTC Market.

2. Select an option type you want to trade, for example [BTC0925C11500·Quarterly]. Users can choose Limit Order or Trigger Order to open a position. Assume you choose Limit Order, just enter the price and quantity, then click “Sell Call” to place an order.
