Please refer to the instructions on the Platform for rate information. The volume will impact the level of options trading, consequently, the discounts for service fees are different.

8. The K-line price of FameEX option trading is based on the latest transaction price of USDT perpetual contract trading. After the option expires, the option will be automatically exercised, and the option cannot be exercised in advance or later. Compared with European-style options and American-style options, FameEX options products have lower trading thresholds, simpler trading processes, and stronger user experience.

9. According to the directions of the options users purchase, FameEX options can be divided into Flat Options, Call Options and Put Options. The exercise of the options depends on the closing price, the opening price, the floating upper limit and the floating lower limit of the periods of the candlestick chart.

9.1 Flat option: FameEX will set a price fluctuation range for the currency pair option based on the historical price performance of different currency pairs, and determine that if the latest transaction price of the digital asset fluctuates within the range (including the range price), it will be regarded as a flat. If the user buys a flat option, if the exercise price is within the floating price range (including the range price), the user who buys the flat option makes a profit, and the user who buys the call option and the put option loses.

9.2 Call option: The user determines that the price of the digital asset is about to rise and exceeds the upper limit price of the floating range, and then buys the call option. During the K-line cycle, if the exercise price is higher than the opening price (or the upper-line price of the floating range), the users who bought the call option when the option is exercised will make a profit, and the users who have bought the call option and the put option will lose money.

9.3 Put option: If the user judges that the price of the digital asset is about to fall and exceeds the lower limit price of the floating range, the user will buy a put option. During the K-line cycle, if the exercise price is lower than the opening price (or the lower line price of the floating range), the users who bought the put option at the time of exercising the option make a profit, and the user who buys the put option and the call option loses.

9.4 The platform will adjust the trading pairs that support option trading and decide whether to support flat options according to the actual market operation and risk control policies.

9.5 The Platform manages the floating zone of price for different pairs and adjusts the scope of the floating zone according to the historical price data of each pair.

Users will pay premium and service fees when they purchase options, the fees will be deducted from the derivative account. When the exercise of options is done, the profit will also be sent to the derivative account.

10.1 Derivative account: A derivative account is a virtual sub-account under the users’ current UID account, the assets within can be used for USDT perpetual contracts, options trading and other cryptocurrency tradings.

10.2 Premium: Users need to pay a certain premium for buying an option. When the option is exercised, your buying direction must be in the same direction as the ups and downs of the exercise price in order to make a profit in the transaction; otherwise, you will lose the premium. .

10.3 Service Fees: Premium (total amount when buying in) * Fee rate. The service fee will be deducted from the derivative account and is not included in the premium.

10.4 When the exercise is done, the profit for users who earn will be calculated according to the ratio of his/her premium in the total premium of all users who earn. The profit comes from the premium of the users who lose.

10.5 Loss refers to the premium of the users who lose when the exercise is done.

11. Risk Control

11.1 Options trading shares the same derivative account with USDT perceptual contract, therefore, please ensure that there are sufficient funds in your derivative account before options trading and the position size will not be influenced.

11.2 The lack of patterns of the price change of Digital Assets makes it impossible for FameEX to promise that your net benefits will exceed the premium and the service fees. In other terms, when your buying direction is consistent with the exercise of options, if the premium from the users who lose is of relatively small amount, the profit may not be enough to cover the cost of service fees.

12. Users should comply with all applicable laws, business rules regarding trading and this Agreement as well as the Service Agreement.
