Why Trade CFD Options With Us
Finalto is uniquely positioned to provide a single multi-asset trading account enabling access to both spot and CFD options.
No upfront premium payment
Get options exposure using margining instead of paying a premium upfront. Trade European-style FX option payoffs keeping cash available while maintaining option-style convexity to expiry.
Transparent Margin Model
Cost and risk is reflected directly in margin requirements and P&L, so clients can clearly see how exposure is funded and managed throughout the life of the trade.
Seamless Integration
Designed to plug into existing CFD brokerage infrastructure, simplifying onboarding, integration, reporting, and client servicing versus deliverable OTC FX options.
Scalable by Design
A product built with your growth strategy in mind. Standardised European contracts with streamlined expiry and settlement make it easier for brokers, prop firms and smaller funds to offer options-like risk management without the considerable operational expense and complexity of deliverable options.
One-Stop Consistent Pricing
Pricing and execution are delivered through one integrated platform, enabling consistent quoting, risk management, and service.
Clear and Defined Rule at Expiry
ITM/OTM is decided by a clearly defined fixing methodology, with settlement occurring automatically, reducing potential disputes caused by manual exercise and post-trade processes.

About Options
What instruments are available in your offering?
We provide CFD options on major FX pairs, including AUD/USD, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, NZD/USD, USD/CAD, USD/CHF, and USD/JPY. These cover the most liquid segments of the FX market, enabling efficient hedging and trading strategies.
What are the contract specifications and option types?
Our product offers European-style call and put options, meaning they can only be exercised at expiry. A wide range of strike prices is available, covering most of the delta spectrum to support diverse trading and risk management strategies.
How are the options settled?
All contracts are cash-settled, using the underlying BFIX benchmark price at 11:00 AM London time on expiry. This removes the need for physical delivery and simplifies post-trade processing for institutional clients.
What expiries and trading hours do you support?
We offer weekly, monthly, and quarterly expiries, with standard monthly expiries occurring on the third Wednesday of each month. Trading is available 24/5, from Sunday 22:00 to Friday 22:00 (GMT), aligning with global FX market hours.
What are the trading constraints and minimums?
- Minimum trade size: 1,000 units
- Price precision: 0.1 pip (up to 5 decimal places)
- Positioning: Long positions only (short selling is not permitted)
These parameters are designed to balance institutional flexibility with controlled risk exposure.
