[Important] Wealth Tools Unknown to 80% of People

Bitcoin price has been fluctuating between $30,000 and $60,000 for over three months. The recent decline from April highs has led many investors to believe that a bear market has arrived. However, there are also views that the major adjustment before the big bull market of 2017 was merely a prelude to an even larger bull market. For many investors, judging whether it's a bull or bear market may not be important. Being skilled at using contract trading tools allows you to profit whether prices rise or fall. The key is how to correctly judge market trends and grasp the direction.

Always, judging market direction, avoiding losses, and earning profits have been the most discussed topics in the trading market. OKX , based on market big data and powerful data processing technology, provides users with various efficient and practical trading tools to help users quickly master market dynamics and price trends in rapidly changing market conditions, assist users in making trading decisions, and enable users to operate more conveniently through trading tools to complete trading strategies and obtain higher, more stable returns.

[1] Long/Short Judgment Tool: OKX Trading Big Data

The key to profit or loss is whether the direction is correct. Whether novice investors, investors with some foundation, or professional traders, all strive to improve the accuracy of market judgment.

To improve accuracy, you need to understand market patterns and market sentiment. Data such as "long/short position ratio" and "funding rate" can reflect current market sentiment. Mastering these key indicators can help investors predict future market trends more accurately and efficiently. In actual operations, based on different trading strategies such as short-term, swing, or long-term trading, you can query indicator data across different timeframes like 1H/4H/1D/1W, making it more likely to accurately judge market trends and long/short direction for a future period. Then, by combining candlestick patterns and other indicators, you can make trading decisions.

[2] Take Profit/Stop Loss Controller: The Secret to Big Profits and Small Losses

In free trading, take profit and stop loss are both very important strategies. As the names suggest, take profit means placing an order to close positions and settle profits when still profitable and possibly continuing to profit but having reached the target price. Stop loss means placing an order to close positions and stop losses when losing money at a price level of risk loss that can be tolerated.

For scenarios such as unclear market direction and limited trading experience, using take profit/stop loss controllers to effectively manage risk can help us stay alert when profitable to avoid gains turning into losses, and stay calm to stop losses in time when losing to avoid losses continuing to expand. Take profit/stop loss controllers control returns and losses. As long as you ensure returns are greater than losses, then you profit, which is also the essence of profitability. Therefore, the take profit/stop loss feature launched on the OKX platform has also gained market recognition, known as the secret to big profits and small losses, becoming a wealth tool commonly used by countless influencers and investors.

[3] Real-time "Market Watch/Alerts": Don't Miss Major Trading Opportunities

In any financial investment market, most of the time is sideways consolidation, with fewer major market trend changes. Therefore, achieving higher returns requires seizing major market opportunities. Most investors in the market are not professional traders and don't have the time and opportunity to observe and analyze market conditions all day. How to avoid missing trading opportunities? Market watch and alert trading tools emerged.

Market watch allows setting the trading pairs you want to follow. Through a floating window method, it displays the current price and change of the selected trading pair. When changes exceed a certain percentage, it promptly jumps to the trading page to perform take profit/stop loss or place orders to open positions. Alerts allow setting alert prices for trading pairs. When real-time prices trigger the alert price, a notification will be made. You can perform corresponding trading operations based on the alert to avoid losses in extreme market conditions.

Besides setting market watch and alerts, you can also quickly understand market conditions through real-time quote tools during community communication. The intelligent bot Quote Rabbit introduced in OKX official communities can provide you with real-time quote services.

[4] Risk Management Essential: "Contract Calculator"

Opening a position at this point, how much return can you get when closing? What is the liquidation price for the position? Even though the position already displays information such as current margin, current leverage, and current liquidation price, as a contract trader who wants to manage risk and earn optimal returns, you still need to consider points, leverage, returns, liquidation price, and other issues. Manually calculating these data is both complex and time-consuming. Is there a tool that can calculate these data? Yes! Contract Calculator!

Contract Calculator is a commonly used auxiliary tool in contract trading. Users can use this tool to calculate data such as returns, closing price, and liquidation price. For traders in any trading state, Contract Calculator is a practical tool for more accurately and conveniently calculating what price to close at for more ideal take profit or stop loss, and can also calculate liquidation prices to determine position size, margin amount, and leverage.

[5] No Principal Loss and Controlled Risk, Obtaining Ideal Annualized Returns with "Arbitrage Data"

"Zero-cost arbitrage" as a very mainstream operational strategy is an investment method that investors are eagerly concerned about. Main methods include funding rate arbitrage , spread arbitrage, grid arbitrage, etc. Because the crypto market has greater arbitrage space, and compared to high-risk free trading, arbitrage basically has no principal loss risk, arbitrage strategies in the crypto market are investment methods with extremely high cost-performance ratio, and are very suitable for novice users who have some operational foundation but cannot yet profit in trading. When arbitrage space is large enough and position value is large enough, arbitrage returns will be quite substantial.

According to "arbitrage data," you can determine whether there are arbitrage opportunities in the current market and whether the arbitrage space is substantial. For funding rate arbitrage, you need to reference the funding rate data of various currencies with perpetual contract trading enabled. For spread arbitrage, you need to understand the spot and contract spread situations of various currencies, then select currencies with higher return rates. Therefore, accurate and comprehensive "arbitrage data" is the key to arbitrage.

[6] "Asset Analysis" to Review Historical Trading and Clarify Asset Distribution

Many investors fall into this misconception, thinking that as long as they know returns and losses, they don't need to understand more information, while returns and losses can be calculated from total assets. But in fact, as investors, you not only need to understand overall returns but also your allocation across various sectors, profit and loss situations in each trading, and make operations such as adding positions, reducing positions, or transferring positions based on analysis. Analysis of historical data also facilitates reviewing trading and summarizing trading experience.
