The move to integrate options trading was prompted by high levels of activity in both the retail and institutional sectors. Rishi Khanna, CEO of Stocktwits, highlighted that discussions around this tool are commonplace within their communities.
The new feature enables Stocktwits’ users to trade options directly via ST Invest, its broker-dealer subsidiary. The social platform currently caters to over 8 million registered members who can now take advantage of this added functionality.
In addition to the introduction of options trading, Khanna pointed out that investors are preparing for potential market instability. Factors such as fluctuating interest rates and inflation are seen as potential catalysts for this volatility. These elements are anticipated to influence the macroeconomic landscape in the coming three to nine months.
Options trading is often viewed as a potent tool for experienced investors with a high risk tolerance. It provides them with an avenue to navigate through periods of market volatility, offering opportunities even in uncertain times.
