How to enable your account for futures trading?

The account mode on your OKX account is Simple Mode by default which allows you to trade only the spot market. It is a pretty straightforward step to change your account mode to enable futures trading.

  1. Log in to your OKX account.
  2. Click “Trade” on the top row and select “Derivatives”
  3. On the next page click on the settings icon in the right upper corner.
  4. Click select “Single-currency Margin” or any other 2 options where it says you can trade futures.
  5. The last step is, in the settings section to change your order placement mode to “Long/Short Mode”.
