The exchange allows for simple market trades of typical underlying assets including commodities, stocks, bonds, interest rates, currencies, crypto, and advanced derivatives trading of all kinds of synthetic assets, including forwards, futures, options, and swaps. Derivatives and synthetic assets allow investors to earn large returns from small movements in the underlying asset's price.
