Dublin: AvaTrade, an award-winning CFD broker – and among the largest and most regulated in the market – is proud to expand its innovative options trading services with the launch of AvaOptions WebTrader, a desktop platform for experienced traders seeking more flexibility and control over their risk.
Building on the successful AvaOptions interface, AvaOptions WebTrader replicates AvaTrade’s unique options trading experience, pioneered in its AvaOptions mobile apps, for users trading via internet browsers.
“We are excited to start 2021 with the launch of AvaOptions WebTrader, offering our veteran users highly attractive pricing, efficient margining, and commission-free trading wherever they go,” said Dáire Ferguson, Chief Executive Officer, AvaTrade. “The WebTrader platform has been designed to have the same look and feel as our intuitive mobile app, which makes visualising and executing strategies as simple and convenient as possible for our customers.”
The AvaOptions platform is unique to the online trading market with the extensive range of tools and features on offer. Users can trade FX, gold and silver, oil, indices, and, of course, options all in one account.
AvaOptions also includes the popular chart pattern recognition software, Autochartist™. This allows users to stay on top of trends and signals, visualise historical market prices and market movements under different scenarios, and how a strategy will perform in each case. With just a few clicks within the platform, users can then execute trades using these signals if desired.
AvaOptions’ excellent pricing is complemented by an efficient risk-based margining process that factors in the risk of all positions in each product to calculate the required margin needed to commit to a trade. For instance, if a user buys EUR/USD and a put option on EUR/USD, they can reduce their margin or even cut it to zero with the right parameters.
Traders can also fully customise the trading screen to fit their style, choose the exact exposure to match their market view, opt for any expiration date ranging from one day (“overnight”) to one year, and select any strike price they wish.
Ferguson continued: “As part of AvaTrade’s ongoing commitment to client success, we strongly believe in educating our users to ensure they stay safe and understand their risk exposure. This is why we have integrated a clear, user-friendly strategy guide which is available in nine languages and explains all 14 available options strategies, as well as when and how to use them.”
