Specific trading conditions may apply from time to time, for all admitted Digital Assets or on an asset-by-asset basis, for example during a specific status as determined by Bitvavo, including Halted markets, Cancel Only markets or during Auction periods, as set out in these Trading Rules.

5.2 Transactions

(a) Participants can submit instructions to buy or sell Digital Assets on the Bitvavo Trading Platform (placing an Order), against other Digital Assets or Bitvavo E-Tokens, where pairs are offered by Bitvavo from time to time (geographical restrictions may apply).

(b) Bitvavo is not a Participant and Bitvavo will not act as a counterparty of a Participant in any transaction in Digital Assets executed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform.

(c) The Participant is solely responsible for placing Orders and providing any other instructions.Ā 

(d) Bitvavo or other Participants may provide information on Digital Assets, including, but not limited to, the price and volatility. This information as well as any other information on the Bitvavo Trading Platform does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation to sell or buy or an opinion of Bitvavo.

(e) The price indicated on the transaction confirmation is the price at which an Order has been executed. This price may deviate from prices indicated or referenced on the Bitvavo Trading Platform prior to the execution of an Order. The price indicated on the transaction confirmation is always conclusive over other price indications.

5.3 Recurring Buy

(a) Participants can automatically buy selected Digital Assets on a monthly basis by switching on the ā€˜Recurring Buy’ feature.

(b) By using this feature, Participants authorise Bitvavo to deduct Funds and Fees directly from their Account at a random timestamp on a certain day of each month as selected by the Participant.

5.4 Holding of Funds

Once an Order to buy Digital Assets is placed, a certain amount of Funds is placed on hold in the Participant’s Account. This means that these Funds can only be used to fulfil the Order for which they are reserved. The amount of Funds that is placed on hold, varies for Limit Orders and Market Orders. Amounts placed on hold are rounded up. Cancelling an Order returns the remaining amount on hold back to the account. A fill or partial fill reduces the remaining amount of Funds on hold accordingly.Ā 

5.5 Holding of Digital Assets

Once an Order to sell Digital Assets is placed, a certain amount of Digital Assets is placed on hold in the Participant’s Account. This means that these Digital Assets can only be used to fulfil the Order for which they are reserved. The amount of Digital Assets that is placed on hold, varies for Limit Orders and Market Orders. Amounts placed on hold are rounded up. Cancelling an Order returns the remaining amount on hold back to the account. A fill or partial fill reduces the remaining amount of Digital Assets on hold accordingly.

5.6 Order Routing

(a) If a Participant has enabled Price Guarantee Service, Orders that are eligible for Price Guarantee Service that are submitted by the Participant are considered an RfQ (request for quote) and will be routed to the RfQ Segment.Ā

5.8 Cancellation of transactionsĀ 

Bitvavo may, in its sole discretion, or following a request by a Participant, conduct a review of a transaction executed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform where there is a reasonable basis to believe that such transaction has been executed as a result of an erroneously submitted Order, or executed in violation of applicable laws and regulations (including market abuse) and these Terms or where so requested by competent authorities or courts.

5.8.2. Bitvavo shall notify the relevant Participants to a transaction of the result of an investigation into one or more transactions.Ā 

5.8.3.

6 Trading – Central Limit Order Book

6.1 Order Options

(a) The main Order options available on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are a Market Order or a Limit Order.

(i) Market Order:

(A) A Market Order is matched with the best-priced Limit Order in the Order Book at the time of the request. If there are more than one such Limit Orders, the Market Order is matched with the oldest one.Ā 

(B) There is no guarantee that a Market Order will fill at the market price indicated. A Market Order may fill at a number of different prices, based on the quantity of the Market Order and the quantities and direction of the existing Orders in the Order Book at the time.

(ii) Limit Order:

(A) A Limit Order is an Order to buy or sell at a fixed price.Ā 

(B) A Limit Order will be executed if or when the market price reaches the limit price and will be filled at the limit price or better.

(1) A buy Limit Order will be executed only at the limit price or a lower price.

(2) A sell Limit Order will be executed only at the limit price or a higher price.

(b) Additional advanced order options that may be available on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are Stop Loss Order, Stop Loss Limit Order, Take Profit Order and Take Profit Limit Order. The availability of these order options may depend on the method of access to the Bitvavo Trading Platform.

(i) Stop Loss Order:

(A) A Stop Loss Order is an instruction to place a Market Order to buy or sell a Digital Asset once its price reaches a specified trigger price in order to limit Participant losses.Ā 

(B) Once a Stop Loss Order has been placed, it is considered ā€˜active’ until cancelled or until the relevant Market Order is placed, when the Stop Price has been triggered.Ā 

(C) A Stop Loss Order is not posted to the Order Book and is not visible to other Participants.

(ii) Stop Loss Limit Order:

(A) Stop Loss Limit Order mechanics are similar to Stop Loss Order with the main difference that Stop Loss Limit Order creates a Limit Order instead of a Market Order once a Digital Asset reaches a specified price.

(iii) Take Profit Order:

(A) A Take Profit Order is an instruction to place a Market Order to buy or sell a Digital Asset once its price reaches the Take Profit Price to realise Participant profits.Ā 

(B) Once a Take Profit Order has been placed, it is considered ā€˜active’ until it is cancelled or until the relevant Market Order has been placed when the Trigger Price is reached.Ā 

(C) A Take Profit Order is not posted to the Order Book and is not visible to other Participants.

(iv) Take Profit Limit Order:

(A) Take Profit Limit Order mechanics are similar to Take Profit Order with the main difference that Take Profit Limit Order creates a Limit Order instead of a Market Order once a Digital Asset reaches a specified price.

6.2 Submission and execution of OrdersĀ 

(a) An Order is submitted by a Participant via the App, Website or API. The Participant selects the Digital Asset it wants to buy or sell and enters the Order details. Subsequently, the Participant submits the Order to the Order Book.Ā 

(b) Once the Order is submitted by the Participant and received by the Bitvavo Trading Platform system, Bitvavo performs a validation of the Order details, including if the Participant’s balance is sufficient, the market protection checks as set out in Section 6.3 of these Trading Rules and whether, in Bitvavo’s sole discretion, the Order contains all the relevant datapoints as pertaining to the Order, including datapoints that are required for Bitvavo to comply with applicable regulations or any other datapoints to be included in any Order. If the Order fails any of these checks, the Order is rejected and the Participant is notified. If the Order passes these checks, the Order is accepted by Bitvavo, entered into the Order Book and the Participant is notified.

(c) Once accepted into the Order Book, the Order is either matched with another existing Order in the Order Book with an opposite direction, or is added to the Order Book. If an Order is matched with another Order, this results in the execution of the Order in line with Section 6.5 - 6.8 of these Trading Rules. The Participant receives confirmation of such execution.

(d) An Order has the following parameters:

(i) Market: Name of the market, in the format BASE-QUOTE (e.g. BTC-EUR).

(ii) Side: Buy or sell.

(iii) Order Type: Limit Order or Market Order. When placing a Limit Order, the Order might still be executed against a better price than specified, in which case it is processed as a Market Order. There is also a possibility to submit advanced order types as described in [Section 6.3].

(iv) Amount: The quantity of the base asset to be bought/sold (required for Limit Orders, optional for Market Orders). Applicable quantity decimal precisions are detailed in the relevant Market Specification.

(v) Amount Quote: The amount specified in the quote asset (optional for Market Orders, either Amount or Amount Quote is required)

(vi) Price: The price for base asset specified in the quote asset (Required for Limit Orders). Applicable tick sizes are detailed in the relevant Market Specification.

(vii) Time In Force: This specifies how long the Order should be placed on the Order Book. This only applies to Limit Orders. The following options are allowed:

(A) GTC: Good-Til-Cancelled. This is the default setting and places an order on the Order Book until it is filled or cancelled.

(B) IOC: Immediate-Or-Cancel. This allows (partial) filling of the Order when it is submitted. The remaining amount that cannot be matched immediately will be cancelled.

(C) FOK: Fill-Or-Kill. This ensures that the entire Order is either filled or cancelled. Partial fills are not possible.

(viii) Self-Trade Prevention: Trading with oneself is not allowed. This setting handles what should be done if a Participant’s Order would match with one of the Participant’s own orders. The following options are allowed:

(A) Decrement And Cancel: This is the default setting and modifies both Orders by the amount that would have been filled. This results in the smaller of the two Orders being cancelled, and the other Order being reduced in size.

(B) Cancel Oldest: Cancels the oldest Order.

(C) Cancel Newest: Cancels the newest order.

(D) Cancel Both: Cancels both Orders.

(ix) Post Only: Limit Orders that have this set to true will be cancelled if matched immediately. This ensures that the Participant pays the maker fee and not the taker fee. As a default, Post Only is switched off.Ā 

(x) Response Required: If this value is set to false, only the Order ID of the newly created Order is returned. The default value is true (i.e. a full response).

6.3 Market Protections

(a) Order Minimums/Maximums

All Market Orders, Limit Orders, and Stop Orders placed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are subject to minimum and maximum Order Amount and Amount Quote requirements per market.

(b) Number of Open Orders

All Participants are subject to a maximum number of Orders that may be open in the Order Book per market. When a Participant reaches the limit in a given market, any Orders entered in that market thereafter are rejected until the number of open Orders stored in the Order Book for the given market decreases below the limit.

(c) Placement Price Protection

Limit Orders with a Good-Till-Cancel Time in Force are subject to a Placement Price Protection. Buy (Sell) Limit Orders with a price lower (higher) than the lower (upper) Placement Price Protection Band will be rejected.Ā 

(i) The Upper Placement Price Protection Band is calculated by multiplying the Placement Price Multiplier times the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed.

(ii) The Lower Placement Price Protection Band is calculated by dividing the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed by the Placement Price Multiplier.

(d) Execution Price Protection

Limit Orders are subject to an Execution Price Protection. Buy (Sell) Limit Orders with a price higher (lower) than the upper (lower) Execution Price Protection Band will be rejected.

(i) The Upper Execution Price Protection Band is calculated as the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed plus the Execution Protection Threshold percentage.

(ii) The Lower Execution Price Protection Band is calculated as the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed minus the Execution Protection Threshold percentage.

(e) Spread Price Protection

(i) Market Orders are subject to a Spread Price Protection. Market Orders will fill at prices up to the Spread Protection Threshold from the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Market Order is placed. If a Market Order would fill against Orders beyond the Spread Protection Threshold, the Order will partially fill up to the Spread Protection Threshold level and all the remaining quantity of the Order will be cancelled.

(f) Reference Price Protection

All Orders are subject to Reference Price Protection, which limits how far the price at which an Order is executed, can deviate from the market price at the time the Order is placed (the ā€œReference Priceā€).

The Reference Price is an index price, calculated using price data from multiple external exchanges to reflect a fair market value for the Digital Asset. Orders will only be filled at prices within what is known as the ā€œReference Price Protection Thresholdā€, which is a defined range from this Reference Price. If the price at which an Order would be filled falls outside this threshold, only the portion of the Order within the threshold will be filled; the rest will be cancelled. This may result in some Orders being partially filled.

If a valid reference price is unavailable, or if Bitvavo determines that the index does not accurately represent current market conditions, this protection will not apply.

(g) General Note for this section

The limits, multipliers and thresholds used for this section 6.3 shall be determined by Bitvavo for each market.

6.4 Errors

(a) In exceptional cases, there may be errors in the Bitvavo Trading Platform, including in relation to the prices displayed or the way in which Orders are matched. In addition, the Digital Assets on the Bitvavo Trading Platform may be subject to unusual price movements, including as a result of market manipulation or sudden drops or spikes in liquidity. In such cases, Bitvavo may at its sole discretion (and is in no way obliged to):

(i) retrospectively correct any such errors or rectify any such price movements, including by amending or reverting transactions, which may be to the advantage or to the disadvantage of Participant; or

(ii) temporarily or indefinitely halt trading on the Bitvavo Trading Platform for one or more Digital Assets;

(b) Especially during periods of high volume, illiquidity, fast movement or volatility, any Digital Assets traded on the Bitvavo Trading Platform may be executed at a different rate than displayed to the Participant at the time of Participants Order.

(c) In the case of suspected fraud or misuse, Bitvavo reserves the right to suspend or cancel Orders and transactions until the legitimacy has been verified.

6.5 Order Matching and Execution during Regular Trading

(a) Orders that are matched immediately are taker orders. Orders that are not matched immediately and are placed in the Order Book are maker orders.Ā 

(b) Limit Orders may be maker or taker orders, depending on whether the Limit Order can be matched immediately. If matched immediately, the Limit order is a taker order. If placed on the Order Book, the Limit Order is a maker order.

(c) Orders are matched based on price-time priority. This means that taker orders are matched with the maker orders with the best available price. If several orders have the same price, the oldest maker order is matched. This process continues until the order is filled, placed on the Order Book, or cancelled.

(d) The price paid/received is determined by the maker order. This means that Limit Orders can be filled at prices better than their limit price.

(e) Fills may be settled nearly instantly or after a period of time.

(f) The execution price of a Market Order may differ significantly from the indicated price. This may be due to a change in price between the time of the Order being initiated by the Participant and the execution of the Order (i.e. 'slippage').

(g) Market Orders, Limit Orders, and Stop Limit Orders are not guaranteed executable due to the required availability of sufficient supply or demand.

(h) Orders may be executed instantly or after a period of time and will be considered to have taken place at the execution date and time.

6.6 Order Matching during Halted Markets

(a) Bitvavo may, in its discretion, temporarily halt trading in a market to preserve market integrity, orderly trading conditions, and/or to conduct regular scheduled maintenance.

(b) Orders cannot be placed, modified or cancelled when a market is Halted.

(c) No order matching occurs when a market is Halted.

(d) No Order Book updates will be broadcasted when a market is Halted.

6.7 Order Matching during Cancel Only Markets

(a) Bitvavo may, in its sole discretion, temporarily set Cancel Only in a market to preserve market integrity and/or to conduct regular scheduled maintenance.

(b) Orders can be cancelled when a market is in Cancel Only status.

(c) Orders cannot be placed or modified when a market is in Cancel Only status.

(d) No order matching occurs when a market is in Cancel Only status.

6.8 Order Matching during Auctions

(a) Bitvavo employs an Auction methodology after a market has been Halted or put into Cancel Only before Regular Trading resumes to guarantee price discovery and orderly markets.

(b) The Auction process consists of two phases:

(i) Auction Collection:

(A) A Participant cannot place a Market Order when a market is at the Auction Collection phase.

(B) A Participant can place, modify or cancel all other Order types when a market is at an Auction Collection phase.Ā 

(C) No Orders will be matched during the Auction Collection.

(ii) Auction Matching:

(A) A Participant cannot place, modify or cancel Orders when a market is at the Auction Matching phase.

(B) During this period, Orders will be matched in accordance with the procedure as set out below.

(C) Active Limit Orders are used to determine the price at which the most units of the base asset are traded. If there is no price where trades occur, no matching occurs and Regular Trading resumes.

(D) If a price is obtained in the previous step, this price is used to prevent self-trades (according to the specifications made by the User regarding the treatment of its Orders for self trade prevention) .

(E) Orders are matched based on price-time priority and all Orders are considered taker orders. Limit Orders with the best price will be filled first, at the price determined in step (1).

(F) When no more Limit Orders can be matched at the determined price, Buy Post-Only Orders with a price above the determined price and Sell Post-Only Orders with a price below the determined price are cancelled and Regular Trading resumes.

(c) No Order Book updates will be broadcasted when a market is at Auction phase.

7 Trading – Price Guarantee

7.1 Price Guarantee ServiceĀ 

The Price Guarantee Service protects the Participant against price fluctuations in a specific Digital Asset for a period of 5 seconds upon submission of the Order. This market risk is absorbed by the Participant interacting on the RfQ Segment and responding to RfQ. To account for the market risk taken by the Participant between the time of the Participant’s quote and the execution of the Order, each quote may include a compensation (spread).Ā 

7.2 Price Guarantee TradesĀ 

(a) An Order via the Price Guarantee Service will result in a trade when the Participant has accepted the quote that has been shown to it in response to the opening of the order form and the entering of the relevant details of the order by the Participant.Ā 

(b) If a quote under the RFQ Segment is accepted in a timely manner by a Participant, the RfQ will be executed under the Price Guarantee Service terms set out herein, and such RfQ will be deemed a taker order of that Participant.

5 Trading - General

5.1 Trading Days and Trading Hours

The Bitvavo Trading Platform is available for trading every day, 24 hours per day, except for scheduled or unscheduled down-time. Specific trading conditions may apply from time to time, for all admitted Digital Assets or on an asset-by-asset basis, for example during a specific status as determined by Bitvavo, including Halted markets, Cancel Only markets or during Auction periods, as set out in these Trading Rules.

5.2 Transactions

(a) Participants can submit instructions to buy or sell Digital Assets on the Bitvavo Trading Platform (placing an Order), against other Digital Assets or Funds where pairs are offered by Bitvavo from time to time (geographical restrictions may apply).

(b) Bitvavo is not a Participant and Bitvavo will not act as a counterparty of a Participant in any transaction in Digital Assets executed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform.

(c) The Participant is solely responsible for placing Orders and providing any other instructions.

(d) Bitvavo or other Participants may provide information on Digital Assets, including, but not limited to, the price and volatility. This information as well as any other information on the Bitvavo Trading Platform does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation to sell or buy or an opinion of Bitvavo.

(e) The price indicated on the transaction confirmation is the price at which an Order has been executed. This price may deviate from prices indicated or referenced on the Bitvavo Trading Platform prior to the execution of an Order. The price indicated on the transaction confirmation is always conclusive over other price indications.

5.3 Recurring Buy

(a) Participants can automatically buy selected Digital Assets on a monthly basis by switching on the ā€˜Recurring Buy’ feature.

(b) By using this feature, Participants authorise Bitvavo to deduct Funds and Fees directly from their Account at a random timestamp on a certain day of each month as selected by the Participant.

5.4 Holding of Funds

Once an Order to buy Digital Assets is placed, a certain amount of Funds is placed on hold in the Participant’s Account. This means that these Funds can only be used to fulfil the Order for which they are reserved. The amount of Funds that is placed on hold, varies for Limit Orders and Market Orders. Amounts placed on hold are rounded up. Cancelling an Order returns the remaining amount on hold back to the account. A fill or partial fill reduces the remaining amount of Funds on hold accordingly.

5.5 Holding of Digital Assets

Once an Order to sell Digital Assets is placed, a certain amount of Digital Assets is placed on hold in the Participant’s Account. This means that these Digital Assets can only be used to fulfil the Order for which they are reserved. The amount of Digital Assets that is placed on hold, varies for Limit Orders and Market Orders. Amounts placed on hold are rounded up. Cancelling an Order returns the remaining amount on hold back to the account. A fill or partial fill reduces the remaining amount of Digital Assets on hold accordingly.

5.6 Orders and Market Segments

(a) If a Participant has enabled the Price Guarantee Service, Orders that are eligible for Price Guarantee Service that are submitted by the Participant are considered an RfQ (Request for Quote) and will be routed to the RfQ Segment.

(b) All other Orders will be routed to the CLOB segment.

(c) Bitvavo has the sole discretion to decide on which market segment a Digital Asset may be traded and may require certain Digital Assets to be traded on an RfQ-only basis where the liquidity of certain Digital Assets changes.

(d) Bitvavo has the sole discretion to form different market segments, define and change terms applicable to such market segments.

5.7 Market Specifications

(a) Bitvavo will publish Market Specifications detailing the terms of any Digital Assets admitted to trading on the Bitvavo Trading Platform.

(b) Bitvavo may amend, at its sole discretion, the Market Specifications and such amendments shall be communicated to Participants on reasonable notice.

5.8 Cancellation of transactions

5.8.1 Bitvavo may, in its sole discretion, or following a request by a Participant, conduct a review of a transaction executed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform where (i) there is a reasonable basis to believe that such transaction has been executed as a result of an erroneously submitted Order, or (ii) executed in violation of applicable laws and regulations (including market abuse) and these Trading Rules, (iii) or where so requested by competent authorities or courts.

5.8.2. Bitvavo shall notify the relevant Participants to a transaction of the result of an investigation into one or more transactions.

5.8.3. If Bitvavo, at its sole discretion, determines the transaction subject to an investigation is clearly erroneous or executed in violation of applicable laws and regulations (including market abuse) and these Trading Rules, or if requested by competent authorities or courts, it may nullify the transaction, un-wind the fund movements resulting from the transaction and shall notify the affected Participant(s) accordingly.

6 Trading – Central Limit Order Book

6.1 Order Options

(a) The main Order options available on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are a Market Order or a Limit Order.

(i) Market Order:

(A) A Market Order is matched with the best-priced Limit Order in the Order Book at the time of the request. If there are more than one such Limit Orders, the Market Order is matched with the oldest one.

(B) There is no guarantee that a Market Order will fill at the market price indicated. A Market Order may fill at a number of different prices, based on the quantity of the Market Order and the quantities and direction of the existing Orders in the Order Book at the time.

(ii) Limit Order:

(A) A Limit Order is an Order to buy or sell at a fixed price.

(B) A Limit Order will be executed if or when the market price reaches the limit price and will be filled at the limit price or better.

(1) A buy Limit Order will be executed only at the limit price or a lower price.

(2) A sell Limit Order will be executed only at the limit price or a higher price.

(b) Additional advanced order options that may be available on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are Stop Loss Order, Stop Loss Limit Order, Take Profit Order, Take Profit Limit Order and One-Cancels-the-Other. The availability of these order options may depend on the method of access to the Bitvavo Trading Platform.

(i) Stop Loss Order:

(A) A Stop Loss Order is an instruction to place a Market Order to buy or sell a Digital Asset once its price reaches a specified trigger price in order to limit Participant losses.

(B) Once a Stop Loss Order has been placed, it is considered ā€˜active’ until cancelled or until the relevant Market Order is placed, when the stop price has been triggered.

(C) A Stop Loss Order is not posted to the Order Book and is not visible to other Participants.

(ii) Stop Loss Limit Order:

(A) Stop Loss Limit Order mechanics are similar to Stop Loss Order with the main difference that Stop Loss Limit Order creates a Limit Order instead of a Market Order once a Digital Asset reaches a specified price.

(iii) Take Profit Order:

(A) A Take Profit Order is an instruction to place a Market Order to buy or sell a Digital Asset once its price reaches the take profit price to realise Participant profits.

(B) Once a Take Profit Order has been placed, it is considered ā€˜active’ until it is cancelled or until the relevant Market Order has been placed when the trigger price is reached.

(C) A Take Profit Order is not posted to the Order Book and is not visible to other Participants.

(iv) Take Profit Limit Order:

(A) Take Profit Limit Order mechanics are similar to Take Profit Order with the main difference that Take Profit Limit Order creates a Limit Order instead of a Market Order once a Digital Asset reaches a specified price.

(v) One-Cancels-the-Other

(A) This Order type enables Participants to place two linked conditional Orders, (i) a Take Profit or a Take Profit Limit Order and (ii) a Stop Loss or a Stop Loss Limit Order where the triggering of one leg of the Order will result in the automatic cancellation of the other Order.

(B) In this Order type, both legs of the Order should be of the same direction i.e. sell side for both legs or buy side for both legs of the Order.

6.2 Submission and execution of Orders

(a) An Order is submitted by a Participant via the App, Website or API. The Participant selects the Digital Asset it wants to buy or sell and enters the Order details. Subsequently, the Participant submits the Order to the Order Book.

(b) Once the Order is submitted by the Participant and received by the Bitvavo Trading Platform system, Bitvavo performs a validation of the Order details, including if the Participant’s balance is sufficient, the market protection checks as set out in Section 6.3 of these Trading Rules and whether, in Bitvavo’s sole discretion, the Order contains all the relevant datapoints as pertaining to the Order, including datapoints that are required for Bitvavo to comply with applicable regulations or any other datapoints to be included in any Order. If the Order fails any of these checks, the Order is rejected and the Participant is notified. If the Order passes these checks, the Order is accepted by Bitvavo, entered into the Order Book and the Participant is notified.

(c) Once accepted into the Order Book, the Order is either matched with another existing Order in the Order Book with an opposite direction, or is added to the Order Book. If an Order is matched with another Order, this results in the execution of the Order in line with Section 6.5 - 6.8 of these Trading Rules. The Participant receives confirmation of such execution.

(d) An Order has the following parameters:

(i) Market: Name of the market, in the format BASE-QUOTE (e.g. BTC-EUR).

(ii) Side: Buy or sell.

(iii) Order Type: Limit Order or Market Order. When placing a Limit Order, the Order might still be executed against a better price than specified, in which case it is processed as a Market Order. There is also a possibility to submit advanced order types as described in Section 6.3.

(iv) Amount: The quantity of the base asset to be bought/sold (required for Limit Orders, optional for Market Orders). Applicable quantity decimal precisions are detailed in the relevant Market Specification.

(v) Amount Quote: The amount specified in the quote asset (optional for Market Orders, either Amount or Amount Quote is required)

(vi) Price: The price for base asset specified in the quote asset (required for Limit Orders). Applicable Tick Sizes are detailed in the relevant Market Specification.

(vii) Time In Force: This specifies how long the Order should be placed on the Order Book. This only applies to Limit Orders. The following options are allowed:

(A) GTC: Good-Til-Cancelled. This is the default setting and places an order on the Order Book until it is filled or cancelled.

(B) IOC: Immediate-Or-Cancel. This allows (partial) filling of the Order when it is submitted. The remaining amount that cannot be matched immediately will be cancelled.

(C) FOK: Fill-Or-Kill. This ensures that the entire Order is either filled or cancelled. Partial fills are not possible.

(viii) Self-Trade Prevention: Trading with oneself is not allowed. This setting handles what should be done if a Participant’s Order would match with one of the Participant’s own orders. The following options are allowed:

(A) Decrement And Cancel: This is the default setting and modifies both Orders by the amount that would have been filled. This results in the smaller of the two Orders being cancelled, and the other Order being reduced in size.

(B) Cancel Oldest: Cancels the oldest Order.

(C) Cancel Newest: Cancels the newest order.

(D) Cancel Both: Cancels both Orders.

(ix) Post Only: Limit Orders that have this set to true will be cancelled if matched immediately. This ensures that the Participant pays the maker fee and not the taker fee. As a default, Post Only is switched off.

(x) Response Required: If this value is set to false, only the Order ID of the newly created Order is returned. The default value is true (i.e. a full response).

6.3 Market Protections

(a) Order Minimums/Maximums

All Market Orders, Limit Orders, and Stop OrdersĀ placed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are subject to minimum and maximum Order Amount and Amount Quote requirements per market.

(b) Number of Open Orders

All Participants are subject to a maximum number of Orders that may be open in the Order Book per market. When a Participant reaches the limit in a given market, any Orders entered in that market thereafter are rejected until the number of open Orders stored in the Order Book for the given market decreases below the limit.

(c) Placement Price Protection

Limit Orders with a Good-Til-Cancelled Time in Force are subject to a Placement Price Protection. Buy (Sell) Limit Orders with a price lower (higher) than the lower (upper) Placement Price Protection Band will be rejected.

(i) The Upper Placement Price Protection Band is calculated by multiplying the Placement Price Multiplier times the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed.

(ii) The Lower Placement Price Protection Band is calculated by dividing the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed by the Placement Price Multiplier.

(d) Execution Price Protection

Limit Orders are subject to an Execution Price Protection. Buy (Sell) Limit Orders with a price higher (lower) than the upper (lower) Execution Price Protection Band will be rejected.

(i) The Upper Execution Price Protection Band is calculated as the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed plus the Execution Protection Threshold percentage.

(ii) The Lower Execution Price Protection Band is calculated as the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Limit Order is placed minus the Execution Protection Threshold percentage.

(e) Spread Price Protection

(i) Market Orders are subject to a Spread Price Protection. Market Orders will fill at prices up to the Spread Protection Threshold from the mid-point price between the best bid and best offer on the Order Book at the time the Market Order is placed. If a Market Order would fill against Orders beyond the Spread Protection Threshold, the Order will partially fill up to the Spread Protection Threshold level and all the remaining quantity of the Order will be cancelled.

(f) Reference Price Protection

All Orders are subject to Reference Price Protection, which limits how far the price at which an Order is executed, can deviate from the market price at the time the Order is placed (the ā€œReference Priceā€).

The Reference Price is an index price, calculated using price data from multiple external exchanges to reflect a fair market value for the Digital Asset. Orders will only be filled at prices within what is known as the ā€œReference Price Protection Thresholdā€, which is a defined range from this Reference Price. If the price at which an Order would be filled falls outside this threshold, only the portion of the Order within the threshold will be filled; the rest will be cancelled. This may result in some Orders being partially filled.

If a valid reference price is unavailable, or if Bitvavo determines that the index does not accurately represent current market conditions, this protection will not apply.

(g) Cancel on Disconnect

Cancel on Disconnect is a risk management feature that automatically triggers a cancellation of all open Orders placed by a Participant if there is a loss of connection to the Trading Platform for a period specified by the Participant.

Participants can group certain Digital Assets whereby each group would be subject to a different inactivity period after which open Orders in all Digital Assets in such group will be automatically cancelled.

This feature is available to Participants who opt-in for this feature. Bitvavo reserves the right to make this function available to only advanced Participants. Cancellation of open Orders will be processed within the general rules applicable to cancellation, Bitvavo does not guarantee automatic or immediate cancellation.

(h) General note for this section

The limits, multipliers and thresholds used for this section 6.3 shall be determined by Bitvavo for each market.

6.4 Errors

(a) In exceptional cases, there may be errors in the Bitvavo Trading Platform, including in relation to the prices displayed or the way in which Orders are matched. In addition, the Digital Assets on the Bitvavo Trading Platform may be subject to unusual price movements, including as a result of market manipulation or sudden drops or spikes in liquidity. In such cases, Bitvavo may at its sole discretion (and is in no way obliged to):

(i) retrospectively correct any such errors or rectify any such price movements, including by amending or reverting transactions, which may be to the advantage or to the disadvantage of Participant; or

(ii) temporarily or indefinitely halt trading on the Bitvavo Trading Platform for one or more Digital Assets;

(b) Especially during periods of high volume, illiquidity, fast movement or volatility, any Digital Assets traded on the Bitvavo Trading Platform may be executed at a different rate than displayed to the Participant at the time of Participants Order.

(c) Ā In the case of suspected fraud or misuse, Bitvavo reserves the right to suspend or cancel Orders and transactions until the legitimacy has been verified.

6.5 Order Matching and Execution During Regular Trading

(a) Orders that are matched immediately are taker orders. Orders that are not matched immediately and are placed in the Order Book are maker orders.

(b) Limit Orders may be maker or taker orders, depending on whether the Limit Order can be matched immediately. If matched immediately, the Limit order is a taker order. If placed on the Order Book, the Limit Order is a maker order.

(c) Orders are matched based on price-time priority. This means that taker Orders are matched with the maker Orders with the best available price. If several Orders have the same price, the oldest maker Order is matched. This process continues until the Order is filled, placed on the Order Book, or cancelled.

(d) The price paid/received is determined by the maker order. This means that Limit Orders can be filled at prices better than their limit price.

(e) Fills may be settled nearly instantly or after a period of time.

(f) The execution price of a Market Order may differ significantly from the indicated price. This may be due to a change in price between the time of the Order being initiated by the Participant and the execution of the Order (i.e. 'slippage').

(g) Market Orders, Limit Orders, and stop Limit Orders are not guaranteed executable due to the required availability of sufficient supply or demand.

(h) Orders may be executed instantly or after a period of time and will be considered to have taken place at the execution date and time.

6.6 Order Matching During Halted Markets

(a) Bitvavo may, in its discretion, temporarily halt trading in a market to preserve market integrity, orderly trading conditions, and/or to conduct regular scheduled maintenance.

(b) Orders cannot be placed, modified or cancelled when a market is Halted.

(c) No order matching occurs when a market is Halted.

(d) No Order Book updates will be broadcasted when a market is Halted.

6.7 Order Matching During Cancel Only Markets

(a) Bitvavo may, in its sole discretion, temporarily set Cancel Only in a market to preserve market integrity and/or to conduct regular scheduled maintenance.

(b) Orders can be cancelled when a market is in Cancel Only status.

(c) Orders cannot be placed or modified when a market is in Cancel Only status.

(d) No order matching occurs when a market is in Cancel Only status.

6.8 Order Matching During Auctions

(a) Bitvavo employs an Auction methodology after a market has been Halted or put into Cancel Only before Regular Trading resumes to guarantee price discovery and orderly markets.

(b) The Auction process consists of two phases:

(i) Auction Collection:

(A) A Participant cannot place a Market Order when a market is at the Auction Collection phase.

(B) A Participant can place, modify or cancel all other Order types when a market is at an Auction Collection phase.

(C) No Orders will be matched during the Auction Collection.

(ii) Auction Matching:

(A) A Participant cannot place, modify or cancel Orders when a market is at the Auction Matching phase.

(B) During this period, Orders will be matched in accordance with the procedure as set out below.

(C) Active Limit Orders are used to determine the price at which the most units of the base asset are traded. If there is no price where trades occur, no matching occurs and Regular Trading resumes.

(D) If a price is obtained in the previous step, this price is used to prevent self-trades (according to the specifications made by the User regarding the treatment of its Orders for self trade prevention).

(E) Orders are matched based on price-time priority and all Orders are considered taker orders. Limit Orders with the best price will be filled first, at the price determined in step (1).

(F) When no more Limit Orders can be matched at the determined price, Buy Post-Only Orders with a price above the determined price and Sell Post-Only Orders with a price below the determined price are cancelled and Regular Trading resumes.

(c) No Order Book updates will be broadcasted when a market is at Auction phase.

7 Trading

7.1 Price Guarantee Service

The Price Guarantee Service protects the Participant against price fluctuations in a specific Digital Asset for a period of 5 seconds upon submission of the Order. This market risk is absorbed by the Participant interacting on the RfQ Segment and responding to RfQ. To account for the market risk taken by the Participant between the time of the Participant’s quote and the execution of the Order, each quote may include a compensation (spread).

7.2 Price Guarantee Trades

(a) An Order via the Price Guarantee Service will result in a trade when the Participant has accepted the quote that has been shown to it in response to the opening of the order form and the entering of the relevant details of the order by the Participant.

(b) If a quote under the RFQ Segment is accepted in a timely manner by a Participant, the RfQ will be executed under the Price Guarantee Service terms set out herein, and such RfQ will be deemed a taker order of that Participant.

7.3 Price Guarantee Quoting Process

If a quote is not accepted by a Participant within five (5) seconds, the quote will be refreshed with a new quote, which will again be valid for five (5) seconds. This process is repeated until a Participant accepts a quote, which will result in a (partial or entire) execution of the PG Order. Alternatively, the process ends when a Participant does not accept a quote and exits the order form for a specific crypto pair. If there are no available quotes on the RFQ Segment then the Participant will be prompted to execute a standard Market Order.

7.4 Quotes on the RFQ Segment

Prices of the quotes provided by Participants interacting on the RfQ Segment in response to RfQ must remain within a predetermined range. Only quotes that fall within this range will be considered by Bitvavo’s matching engine in selecting the best quote (best from the Participant's perspective) that will be displayed to the Participant in response to a given RfQ .

7.5 Algorithmic Trading

Participants may engage in Algorithmic Trading on the Bitvavo Trading Platform provided that:

(a) the Participant has given prior notice to Bitvavo each time it wishes to deploy a new algorithm or a material change to an algorithm on the Bitvavo Trading Platform and provide a description of the algorithm including a unique identification number assigned to such algorithm, which shall be included in any order or quote generated or governed by such algorithm. Participant shall update such details and identification number upon each material change of the algorithm;

(b) prior to deployment of any algorithm on the Bitvavo Trading Platform, the Participant has performed appropriate and successful testing of each algorithm ensuring an algorithm does not contribute to or create disorderly market conditions on the Bitvavo Trading Platform;

(c) upon Bitvavo’s instruction, the Participant shall use the testing environment made available by Bitvavo for purposes of conformance testing any new algorithm or substantial change to an algorithm, prior to deployment on the Bitvavo Trading Platform;

(d) each algorithm on the Bitvavo Trading Platform shall comply with Bitvavo’s Trading Rules and applicable regulations;

(e) upon Bitvavo’s request, the Participant shall provide certification in writing of the successful testing for each algorithm to be deployed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform, including for each substantial change thereto prior to the deployment on the Bitvavo Trading Platform;

(f) each of their algorithms deployed on the Bitvavo Trading Platform is continuously monitored by the Participant to prevent disorderly trading.

(g) the participant complies with all applicable regulatory obligations, including those relating to the prevention of market abuse, money laundering, terrorism financing, sanctions, and any relevant licensing or authorisation requirements.

7.6 Conditions to High Frequency Trading

Bitvavo may, in its sole discretion, apply conditions to the deployment of High Frequency Trading techniques on the Bitvavo Trading Platform.

7.7. Margin Trading

7.7.1 Margin Trading is a trading strategy that allows a Participant to borrow Digital Assets (ā€œMargin Tradingā€). A Participant may open a short position by borrowing a Digital Asset and then selling Digital Assets with the intention of buying them back later at a more favorable price.

7.7.2 Bitvavo may allow Participants to engage in Margin Trading on Bitvavo Platform. Margin Trading Facility offered to Participants will allow Participants to take a short position or multiple short positions in a Digital Asset by borrowing such Digital Assets from Bitvavo Custody (ā€œBorrowed Assets’) in exchange for collateral (ā€œMargin Trading Facilityā€).

7.7.3 The Participant could trade on margin by using the Margin Account. The Participant shall monitor each Margin Position, the Borrowed Assets and corresponding Margin Collateral in its Margin Account.

7.7.4 The Participant shall monitor the Health Ratio at all times to avoid Liquidation of the relevant Margin Position. If the Liquidation is triggered, Margin Collateral will be used to recover Borrowed Assets, Borrowing Fee and Liquidation Fee.

7.7.5. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that Liquidation may occur automatically, without prior notice, and irrespective of whether other rights or remedies under these Trading Rules and the User Agreement (including provisions relating to default, Force Majeure, or insolvency) have been exercised.

8 Suspension of Trading

8.1 Grounds for Suspension

Without prejudice to the prohibitions as set out in Title VI MiCA, Participants are prohibited from any behaviour that may constitute market abuse, including but not limited to carrying out the following activities on the Bitvavo Trading Platform:

(a) Pump and dumps: artificially inflating the price of a Digital Asset through false and misleading positive statements, in order to sell the cheaply purchased Digital Asset at a higher price.

(b) Wash trading: Simultaneously buying and selling the same Digital Assets to create false trading volume and artificially inflate market activity.

(c) Front-running: Trading in advance of a large client order to take advantage of anticipated price movements resulting from the execution of that order. Front running involves using non-public information about future or pending transactions for their own benefit.

(d) Churning: excessive trading activity by (Broker) Participants on behalf of their clients, on either side of the Order Book, intended to increase the Participant’s (Broker) commissions.

(e) Quote stuffing: quickly entering and then withdrawing large orders in an attempt to flood the market with quotes, causing competitors to lose time in processing them or causing other disorderly trading conditions.

(f) Spoofing / layering: creating the illusion of pessimism (or optimism) in the market by placing buy or sell orders without the intention of filling them.

(g) Insider trading: trading in Digital Assets based on non-public information that could affect the price of those Digital Assets.

(h) Information-based market abuse: spreading false or misleading information about crypto companies, crypto projects, Digital Assets, or market conditions to influence prices or trading activity. This includes disseminating rumours, false news, or deceptive market commentary to manipulate market participants perceptions.

(i) Improper disclosure practices: failing to disclose non-public information that could affect market prices or engaging in selective disclosure of information to certain market participants. Misleading disclosures or inadequate transparency about financial performance, risks, or other material matters related to a Digital Asset can also constitute market abuse.

14.3 Prohibition to Use the Account and the Services for Criminal Activities

A Participant may not use the Account and the Services to perform criminal activities of any sort, including but not limited to money laundering, terrorist financing, sanction evasion, fraud or any other criminal or illegal activity, the existence whereof is to be determined by Bitvavo at its sole discretion.

(e) Activity which would be related to drugs such as sale of narcotics, controlled substances, and any equipment designed for making or using drugs.

(f) Activity which would be related to multi-level marketing such as pyramid schemes and network marketing.

(g) Activity which would be related to unfair, predatory or deceptive practices such as investment opportunities or other services that promise (too) high rewards and sites that Bitvavo determines in its sole discretion to be unfair, deceptive, or predatory towards Participants.

(h) Activity which would be related to illegal gambling such as unregulated lotteries, sports forecasting or odds making and comparable activities.

(i) Activity which would be related to high-risk businesses such as any businesses that Bitvavo believes to pose elevated financial risk, legal liability, or violates bank policies.

17 Fees and expenses

Bitvavo may make changes hereto in its sole discretion from time to time. Any changes made available to Participants shall become effective directly.

17.3 Trading Fee Structure

(a) Trading fees on the Bitvavo Trading Platform are based on each Participant's trading volume from the previous 30 days in accordance with the Fee Schedule as published on the Bitvavo website from time to time.

(b) The total fee amount that is charged for a trade depends on the following:

If Participant does not agree with any such modification, Participant must close its Bitvavo Account and cease using the Bitvavo Trading Platform. If Participant continues to use the Bitvavo Trading Platform after a modification, Participant is deemed to have accepted and agreed to the amendments. It is the Participant's responsibility to review the amended Trading Rules.
