OKX Liquidity Marketplace launches "Basis Spread Express," enabling institutional clients to execute basis trading with one click
OKX today launched its new one-click spread trading feature called "Spread Express" on its institutional-grade liquidity market.
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insightsJune 27, 2023 – OKX, the world’s second-largest digital asset exchange by trading volume and a leading Web3 technology company, today launched its new one-click "Spread Express" feature on its institutional-grade Liquidity Marketplace. As a network providing liquidity for OTC trades, delivery spreads, and options, the OKX Liquidity Marketplace now enables traders to execute complex basis trading strategies with a single click.
Basis trading strategies capitalize on price differences of an asset across two different markets—such as spot versus futures—and can generate returns when executed effectively. Typically, executing such strategies requires managing two separate contracts simultaneously, making the process complex and time-consuming. OKX's "Spread Express" automates this complexity with one-click execution, leveraging the platform’s superior liquidity and low latency to maximize user returns.
OKX's "Spread Express" is among the few unique basis trading tools in the digital asset market that allows users to trade two different contracts via a centralized order book, eliminating execution risk between disparate product markets. Before execution, traders can also opt for guaranteed spreads to mitigate the risk of unexpected price slippage. Once confirmed, trades are instantly matched and settled.
Lennix Lai, Global Head of Business at OKX, said: “In today’s volatile market environment, institutions demand stable and predictable returns while expecting innovation from their chosen exchange—nowhere more so than in basis trading, where execution must be flawless. ‘Spread Express’ raises the bar for efficiency and accuracy in the industry. We invite institutional traders worldwide to adopt this new feature to enhance their strategies and achieve success.”
The "Spread Express" interface is intuitive and designed for institutional traders to easily implement various basis trading strategies. By unifying order book formats, institutional traders can execute popular Delta One spread strategies such as calendar spreads, rolling deliveries, and funding rate arbitrage with ease.
Built to meet institutional demands, the OKX Liquidity Marketplace offers deep liquidity and supports a wide range of cryptocurrency trading strategies—including delivery spreads, large-block options transactions, and spot OTC trades—enabling efficient execution of large-scale orders. In April, OKX announced that its Liquidity Marketplace surpassed $1 billion in total trading volume during the first quarter of 2023.
