Bitget Pre-Market Introduction

Delivery method: Coin settlement, USDT settlement

  • Coin settlement

Coin settlement: Utilizes a "cash on delivery" method. If the seller fails to deliver the required coins, the security deposit will be forfeited as compensation for the breach of contract.

  • USDT settlement

USDT settlement: A new option for pre-market trades. This is the second settlement option offered by Bitget for pre-market trades. Orders are settled at the average index price at the last minute as the delivery execution price. The losing party will pay the difference to the winning party.

Both parties can lose or gain up to 100% of the security deposit, excluding transaction fees.

Example:

The user buys 10 tokens at 10 USDT (the filled order is called Order A) and sells 10 tokens at 15 USDT (the filled order is called Order B).

At delivery time, the system calculates the delivery execution price based on the average index price from the last minute. Assuming the execution price is 5 USDT, the calculations are as follows:

PnL of Order A = (5 – 10) × 10 = –50 USDT

PnL of Order B = (15 – 5) × 10 = 100 USDT

The total PnL for the user in pre-market trading is 50 USDT.

For USDT settlement, orders are settled at the average index price from the last minute as the delivery execution price, determined by a weighted average of prices at leading exchanges to ensure fairness and transparency.

FAQ

What is pre-market trading?

Bitget pre-market trade is an over-the-counter trading platform specializing in providing a pre-traded marketplace for new coins before their official listing. It facilitates peer-to-peer trading between buyers and sellers, enabling them to acquire coins at optimal prices, secure liquidity in advance, and complete delivery at a mutually agreed upon time.

What are the advantages of Bitget pre-market trading?

Investors often have expectations regarding the price of a new coin before spot trading becomes available. However, they may be unable to purchase the coin at their preferred price and secure liquidity in advance due to lack of access. In response to this, Bitget pre-market trading offers an over-the-counter (OTC) platform where buyers and sellers can establish orders in advance to execute trades as desired and complete delivery later. In this scenario, sellers are not required to own any new coins; instead, they only need to obtain sufficient new coins for delivery before the designated delivery time.

How are pre-market trades deliveries completed?

The system will pre-freeze the funds required for the current order between the buyer and seller as a transaction guarantee. Prior to the delivery time, the seller must ensure that their spot account holds the required amount of new tokens; otherwise, the transaction will be canceled. Similarly, the system will unfreeze the buyer's funds and compensate the buyer with the seller's frozen margin.

Once the delivery is completed, the corresponding quantity of tokens will be transferred to the buyer's spot account, and the buyer's frozen funds will be transferred to the seller's spot account after deducting the transaction fee.

Note:

(1) Upon reaching the delivery time, the system will execute the delivery according to the transaction time in sequence, which is expected to be completed within one hour. The seller should refrain from any transactions involving the delivery currency funds within 30 minutes after delivery initiation to mitigate the risk of delivery failure due to insufficient funds.

(2) If you have both buy and sell orders, ensure that your spot account holds the required quantity of the sell order currency at the time of delivery. Orders with insufficient balance will be processed using the "compensate with margin" approach.

How can I make a pre-market trade as a seller?

As a seller, you are required to use the USDT in your spot account to pay the margin. You can list your new tokens on the order market at your preferred price via Post Order, or you can find a suitable buy order on the order market and sell it to the buyer at the buyer's asking price. Once the order is filled, you just need to wait for the delivery.

How can I make a pre-market trade as a buyer?

As a buyer, you are required to use USDT from your spot account to pay for the trade. Using the Place Order function, set the quantity of coins you want to buy at your preferred price and list the maker order in the order market. Bitget will then lock the funds for the purchase and handle any related fees. Alternatively, you can directly select a sell order from the marketplace and buy the coins at the seller's designated price. Once the order is filled, simply await delivery.

Do I have to fill the entire maker sell/buy order at once in pre-market trading?

No, the platform allows you to trade any quantity of coins as long as it meets the minimum transaction limit.
