There are multiple reasons why we decided to launch Arrow Markets IDO. Here are the main 5:

1. Rewards for User Engagement
Arrow incentivizes traders for activities such as implementing trading strategies, user referrals, and social media interactions. These campaigns educate and encourage users to grow and share their trading experience. Be on the lookout for upcoming campaigns!

2. Portfolio Management
Arrow offers a comprehensive view of your portfolio, including in-depth details around the performance and current market metrics. Inevitably, this allows users to make informed decisions and track investments in a timely and efficient manner.

3. User Interface
Options trading isn’t easy, but Arrow Markets prioritizes user experience. With the enhanced UI, the website is catered to ensure both beginner and experienced traders have an ease of use of the platform.

4. Innovative DeFi Options Protocol
Arrow Markets operates on the Avalanche blockchain, allowing users to do options trading without the bottleneck of dealing with intermediaries like broker-dealers. Users are directly connected with market makers via a request for execution (RFE) mechanism which reduces stale quote risk and enhances price efficiency.

5. Recommendation System
Users can select from different market sentiments and simple strategies to access their personalized menu of options. These tailored recommendations align trading goals and most importantly, risk tolerance to optimize your returns and enhance your decision-making capabilities.
