European investors can now access continuous, leveraged equity futures trading alongside crypto derivatives and spot, on a single regulated platform.
One Trading, the EU’s first trading venue authorized under both MiFID II and MiCAR, today announced the launch of equity futures on its platform. Kaiko Indices, the reference rate provider for One Trading’s crypto futures, will extend that role to cover the new equity contracts, enabling One Trading’s institutional and eligible retail customers to trade equity futures 24/7, with up to 10x leverage.
What This Means for Traders
Until recently, gaining leveraged exposure to equities in Europe has meant navigating instruments restricted to market hours. One Trading’s equity futures change that. Cash-settled, with a 5-year expiry date, up to 10x leverage, and available around the clock, they apply the same model that made derivatives the most traded product in digital assets, but now applied to equities, within a fully regulated EU framework.
For institutional and eligible retail clients, this means a simpler, more flexible way to trade equity exposure alongside crypto derivatives and spot on one platform, under a unified regulatory standard.
Expanding Beyond Crypto
Since launching crypto futures in 2025, One Trading has offered clients continuous access to cash-settled products on BTC/USD, ETH/USD, and a range of other crypto pairs, representing $8 billion in cumulative volume since 2025. The addition of equity futures marks the first time the platform’s infrastructure has been applied to a traditional asset class, a direct expression of One Trading’s goal to become the single destination for leveraged and fully regulated financial products in Europe.
The platform is regulated in the Netherlands under both MiFID II and MiCAR, offering access to products that would otherwise span multiple venues, regulatory regimes, and market hour constraints.
Kaiko Indices as Reference Rate Provider
Kaiko Indices provides the reference rates underpinning the pricing and settlement of the new equity contracts, as it does for One Trading’s existing crypto derivatives. The trusted infrastructure that ensures transparent, manipulation-resistant settlement on crypto products now applies to equities, extending Kaiko Indices’ coverage across asset classes. As the leading global reference rates provider for futures markets spanning crypto, equities, and commodities, Kaiko Indices brings consistent rigor to every market it covers. For European investors, this marks a step change: uninterrupted access to derivatives across both crypto and equity markets, powered by the proven rates infrastructure that has backed One Trading’s products since day one.
“At One Trading, our ambition is to offer a complete range of regulated leveraged financial products, from crypto to equities and other asset classes, while maintaining the highest standards of transparency, precision, and performance. As we expand our product offering, it’s important that we work with partners who share those values. Kaiko’s reference rates provide the robust and reliable benchmarks that underpin our pricing infrastructure across digital assets and equities alike. We’re pleased to deepen our partnership with Kaiko as we continue building the future of regulated trading,” said Joshua Barraclough, CEO of One Trading.
“Equity futures are exactly the kind of product that demands reference rates you can rely on around the clock. One Trading has set a high bar for derivatives trading in Europe, and that is precisely the environment Kaiko Indices was built for: stable, independent rates that hold up under sustained market pressure, whether the underlying is Bitcoin or an equity index,” said Anne-Claire Maurice, Managing Director, Quant Data at Kaiko.
