    Create Your Strategy

    The execution of the strategy depends on whether there is enough liquidity (bids and offers) in the market. Note that under extreme market conditions, lack of liquidity may cause strategy creation to fail.

     

    You can create your options strategy in two ways:

     

    a. Default Mode

    Default Mode is suitable for beginners in options trading.

     

    In Default Mode, the system will automatically help you set the coin, the strike price and expiration date. You can view the profit and loss graph, maximum profit, and margin required for the generated strategy on the Create Strategy page.

     

    The strike price will be set based on market conditions. Note that the strike price cannot be modified.

    b. Pro Mode

    Pro Mode is suitable for investors with experience in options trading. On the Create Strategy page, default strategy parameters are provided. You can edit the following parameters as needed:

     

    1. Coin: Select the underlying asset of the options

    2. Strategy: Select your preferred options strategy

    3. Exp. Date: Set the date your options contract expires

    4. Strike: Set strike prices for two options

    5. Size: Enter the quantity to buy or sell

     

    After confirming that your strategy creation information is correct, click on Create Strategy. Your options strategy will be executed as market orders.
