Trade Crypto Futures and Options with Quedex’s Bitcoin-Focused Derivatives Platform

With Bitcoin futures newly-introduced to the derivatives industry, online traders can soon look forward to accessing Bitcoin futures and options market on the world’s first Bitcoin denominated derivatives online platform – Quedex.

Announcing its open beta launch, the Gibraltar-based financial instruments firm will enable crypto traders to sell and buy similar Bitcoin futures contracts as those offered by regulated cash-settled exchanges such as Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) and Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), which opened trading over the last two weeks in the US.

The derivatives market opens up additional investment channels for traders who do not own actual Bitcoins in their portfolio, allowing them to buy contracts at determined prices and making shorting options available and settling contracts in fiat.

Hi quedex, Where can we find the earned points?  When you will be square off positions?

tadakaluri, you will find the points in the Challenge ranking. Currently you see only your PnL. At the end of the trading session (in ~7 minutes from now), points will be calculated based on the PnL.

Great and original exchange. I especially enjoyed the futures trading feature.

That's a feature that most digital currency exchanges should introduce.

We're quite sure that what virustotal has found are false-positives. The app was compiled on a clean install of original Windows 7. You may compile our app by yourself (from the source) and check that virustotal will give the same warnings as for our file (which will prove that we didn't "add" anything). Anyone wants to help us with the audit?

We also found that:

The Riskware.Win32.Crypter.dpjgbl is a false positive - it's detected in a number of popular programs (like GnuPG version 1.4.19, which is included in our binary, from http://ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-1.4.19.tar.gz ), cf. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/ff4979980b00773c414c3cd5571eae8cc3916d3607e9621400f0302f1e138882/analysis/ ).
The WS.Reputation.1 thing means "Symantec doesn't actually see any virus" (cf. https://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2010-051308-1854-99 ).

Nevertheless, thanks for the check.

edit: Please also check out the latest analysis of this file, it's free of the false positive "TrojanSpy.Python.l": https://www.virustotal.com/ro/file/05b74652e45aad80f008824c3b8756b69ad8326280f0ca6da4bbc13a64958ca0/analysis/

edit2: We've released a new version of the app, which uses GnuPG 2, and thus got rid of the false positive "Riskware.Win32.Crypter.dpjgbl": https://www.virustotal.com/ro/file/398cae74791c9e30dbef713bbc76f07ff12cb4db9ce585cfeb4c2098fcafa673/analysis/1439367417/

edit3: False alarms problem have been solved in the new version https://quedex.net/trading_app: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/398cae74791c9e30dbef713bbc76f07ff12cb4db9ce585cfeb4c2098fcafa673/analysis/
