About Call Auctions

Call auction mechanism will be used for spot listing of SONIC/USDT. The call auction period will last for 1 hour.

OKX operates a call auction mechanism that allows you to submit buy and sell orders at your desired prices according to certain trading parameters before a new trading pair officially begins trading. The trading system processes all submissions according to call auction rules and calculates an indicative opening price based on these submissions.

In order to provide more trading information, following the end of the call auction, OKX will display the project team's opening price at the commencement of continuous trading as the initial price of the trading chart. The project team's opening price is provided by the token project team usually based on the valuation of the project. This project team's opening price is displayed for information purpose only, and is not determined by the call auction mechanism, and will not impact the prices where you will execute the orders.
