OTC Trading FAQs

• What is OTC (Over-the-Counter) crypto trading?
  OTC trading allows you to buy or sell large amounts of cryptocurrency directly with Netcoins' trading desk, rather than placing orders on an open exchange. This means your large trades are executed privately without affecting the public market price, which is especially important for trades over $25,000 CAD.

• What is the minimum trade size for Netcoins OTC?
  Netcoins OTC services are designed for trades of $25,000 CAD or more. If you are looking to trade smaller amounts, our self-directed trading platform is available for trades starting at just $10.

• How does OTC pricing work?
  Netcoins OTC provides custom, competitive pricing based on the size of your trade, current market conditions, and the specific cryptocurrency. Your dedicated account manager will provide you with a quote before you confirm any trade, so you always know the exact price before executing.

• How quickly are OTC trades settled?
  Most OTC trades on Netcoins are settled on the same business day. Settlement times may vary depending on the funding method used and the specific cryptocurrency involved. Your account manager will provide estimated settlement timelines for each trade.

• Who should use Netcoins OTC services?
  Netcoins OTC is ideal for high-net-worth individuals, institutional investors, corporations, hedge funds, family offices, and businesses that need to execute large cryptocurrency trades efficiently and privately. If you regularly trade amounts over $25,000 CAD, OTC trading can provide better pricing and a more personalized experience than self-directed trading.
