OTC is an acronym for over-the-counter and can also be referred to as off-exchange trading. OTC is an essential component of most markets and usually requires an agent/broker to bring all parties together (buyer and seller). This differs from on-exchange trading, where all parties can post their own price levels on an order book and wait for an offer to trade. Our trading desk allows our clients to perform high volume transactions without the barrier of needing public order books. OTC crypto trading is also known for tighter spreads, which means high volume traders can save money and maximise profits.
Are there any fees associated with OTC trading?
Fees for OTC are built into the rate provided on our Gateway platform.
What is slippage in terms of OTC?
What is slippage in terms of OTC? Slippage refers to the price you actually get when the order executes compared to the price you may have expected to receive at the time or ordering. A key advantage of crypto is a reduced change of slippage occurring. This larger the trade size the more you will save on slippage costs for OTC exchanges.
Is OTC secure and safe?
Yes. Given OTC orders are visible or reported to the market there is a reduced chance that your trade will signal the market and therefore move prices away from you before your trade is filled.
Does OTC offer deep pools of liquidity?
In short, yes. Our OTC desk allows our clients to tap into their network of institutional crypto buyers and sellers; such as miners family offices, investment funds and miners.
