Options Trading in Singapore, on OKX: What It Is, How It Works, and What to Know
Options are financial instruments that give you the right, but not the obligation to buy or sell crypto at a specific price before a set expiry date.
They’re powerful tools used by traders to:
Hedge market risk
Amplify profit potential
Create structured strategies for volatile or sideways markets
With options, you can earn, protect, or speculate, all depending on how you structure your trade.
How Options WorkThere are two types of options:
Call Option: The right to buy an asset at a certain price
Put Option: The right to sell an asset at a certain price
You pay a premium upfront to enter an options trade. This premium is the maximum loss for the buyer, no surprise liquidations.
For example: If you buy a BTC call option with a strike price of $90,000, and BTC rises to $95,000, you can exercise or sell your option for a profit. If BTC stays below $90,000, the option expires worthless, but your loss is limited to the premium you paid.
