Please note: in order to participate in block trading on OKX TR, your trading account must meet a minimum asset requirement of 10,000 USD or equivalent.
A block trade is a large-sized, privately-negotiated transaction. They are common among institutional investors, hedge funds, and high-net-worth individuals deploying significant capital. When executing large orders on exchanges, traders risk disrupting the market and causing extreme price changes. Alternatively, takers and makers can agree on a settlement price discreetly and privately with a request-for-quote (RFQ).
What is an RFQ?
A request-for-quote, or RFQ, is an electronic notification sent to market makers expressing the sender's intention to trade a specific instrument or strategy. Market makers will be alerted once an RFQ has been sent and will be prompted to submit an ask and a bid price for the request.
