TechFlow News — On August 1, according to official announcements, OKX has officially launched its pre-market trading feature, initially introducing the HMSTR/USDT delivery contract. Through OKX pre-market trading, users can trade selected cryptocurrency delivery contracts before their official listing, gaining early access to buy or sell, along with 2x leverage support.
The pre-market delivery contracts are essentially USDT-margined delivery contracts, typically settled before a new token is listed on the spot market. This mechanism aims to enable users to participate earlier in price discovery for new tokens. OKX warns that prices of tokens available through pre-market trading are determined by the market and may experience high volatility and risk. Participation should therefore be approached with caution. It is not guaranteed that tokens traded in pre-market sessions will eventually be listed on the spot market; users should refer to official OKX announcements for final listing details.
