RE: OkCoin Futures Trading Guide

in #okcoin8 years ago

Great article, I was just looking at OKCoin yesterday, like the idea it is PoS. Any ideas on if it will stake from a raspberry pi or do I need a full system.

I am not much of a trader yet but it kind of sounds like OKCoin is similar to what I heard is trading options with puts and calls. Depending on wether price will go up or down by a future date.

Sort:  

You are thinking of Okcash, which is a cryptocurrency. Okcoin is a chinese exchange.

Puts and calls are options, you pay a fee for the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell the products on expiration.

Futures are much more basic derivative, it simply trades around like a normal spot market and then shuts down and closes everyone out on delivery.

Cheers!

Ah yes was thinking about the OKCash.

Sounds very interesting, I will have to look at the OKCoin markets. Sounds like it could be beneficial to both large traders and smaller traders.
