Dear OKX users:
To satisfy customer’s need for more expiries, OKX will add more option expiries, including the third-monthly, third-quarterly and fourth-quarterly, for both BTC and ETH at 8:00 a.m.(UTC) on Jun 22, 2022. They will be options with expiry on Mar 31, 2023 and Jun 30, 2023. And the options with expiry on Sep 30, 2022 will be considered as the third-monthly options.
The generation rules for those expiries are as follows:
| The type of expiry | Generation rule |
| Third-monthly | At 08:00 am UTC on last third Friday every month, and trade starts 30 minutes later |
| Third-quarterly, Fourth-quarterly |
At 08:00 am UTC on last third Friday every three months, and trade starts 30 minutes later To be specific, Mar, Jun, Sep and Dec |
For example, the third-monthly options with expiry on Oct 31,2022 will be generated at 08:00 a.m. UTC on Jul 15, 2022; the fourth-quarterly options with expiry on Sep 30, 2023 will be generated at 08:00 a.m. UTC on Sep 16, 2022.
