Before you can trade perpetual futures at One Trading, you’ll need to pass an appropriateness test to ensure you understand the risks and mechanics of these advanced financial products.
When can I take the test?
You can take the test after your identity verification (KYC) and onboarding is complete.
How to start:
- Log in to your One Trading account.
- Navigate to the Markets section.
- Select a market labeled with “Perps” (e.g. BTC/EUR Perps).
You’ll automatically be directed to the appropriateness test.
What does the test include?
The test takes about 10 - 15 minutes and covers:
- General risk awareness
- Understanding derivatives and leverage
- Your knowledge and experience
- Practical trading examples
- Situational knowledge-based questions
What happens if I pass?
You’ll get immediate access to trade perpetual futures based on your results and account type.
What happens if I fail?
- You’ll have up to 3 attempts to pass the test.
- If you fail all 3 attempts, you must wait 2 months before trying again.
- You can opt-in to receive an email notification when you're eligible to retake the test.

What is the appropriateness test?
Investing involves risks. The value of investments can go up as well as down and you may receive back less than your original investment or lose your entire investment. Investing with leverage means the value of your investment fluctuates more than the price of the underlying asset. One Trading does not provide investment advice and investors should make their own decisions or seek independent advice.
