Expiration and Exercise of Options

Title: Physical Exercise vs Cash Settlement: How do expiries work? 🔄📌

​Content:

At the expiration of an options contract, the settlement mechanism depends on the type of platform and instrument used.

​💡 The two modes:

​Cash Settlement: The value difference between the Strike and the closing price is directly credited or debited in Stablecoins (the most common mode in crypto).

​Physical Delivery: The underlying asset is actually transferred between the buyer and the seller.

​Always check the settlement mode of your contracts before they expire!

​12. Execution Discipline: Limit Order vs Market Order

Title: Why prefer Limit Orders in the options market 🎯🛒

​Content:

Executing at market on the options order book can lead to surprises due to the Bid-Ask Spread.

​📌 Execution tips:

​Always use Limit Orders: Set the exact maximum price you’re willing to pay for your premium.

​Bring the order closer to the average price (Mark Price): This optimizes your chances of execution without suffering price slippage.

​Make sure there is sufficient liquidity on the order book for the selected Strike.

​Saving even a fraction of a Stablecoin at entry increases your final profitability.
