Premia Blue: A non-custodial DeFi options exchange built exclusively on Arbitrum.

Trading Options on Premia Blue

When buying an option, you first select which asset you want to buy — let’s say you want to buy a Call option for WBTC.

You select WBTC, the strike price, and the expiration date. Premia Blue will show you a list of quotes from all the different WBTC pools, with the best price listed first.

Setting Range Orders

Concentrated liquidity and range orders are the core of Premia Blue for advanced liquidity providers.

Concentrated liquidity is a feature that allows liquidity providers (LPs) to set a specific range of premiums they want to provide liquidity for rather than providing liquidity for any price and option. This enables LPs to fully customize their risk profile!

Premia Blue Range Order View

The current average premium paid will be displayed on the interface with a little blue bar, and LPs can select the range of premiums they are willing to underwrite options for.

As an example, I could say I only want to sell ETH Calls that:

  • Expire on July 5th
  • With a strike price of $1,900
  • For a premium between $200 and $500

After setting the range order, my liquidity won’t be used to underwrite any options where the premium is outside of that range.

This allows users to manage their risk and determine what premium is worth it for them to sell options that are more likely to expire in the money.

Range Orders: Liquidity providers are able to concentrate their liquidity within the range and type of option that will earn them optimal yield.

Options Strategy Vaults

Strategy Vaults are automated, low-maintenance ways of extracting yield from DeFi options on Premia Blue.

  • Permissionless pool creation and underwriting and selling specific options is often more valuable for advanced users and people who want to actively manage their LP positions.
  • Strategy Vaults are for users that want to put their liquidity to use on the platform without having to worry about the intricacies and management of concentrated liquidity positions.

Currently, Premia Blue supports both call- and put selling vaults for ARB, WBTC, WETH, wstETH, LINK, MAGIC, and GMX. Depositing into a vault also earns users additional PREMIA call options as rewards!
