Binance will mandate Self-Trade Prevention (STP) for all Binance Options clients, effective March 19, 2026 at 06:00 UTC. The rollout will cover Spot, Margin, Futures, and Options trading on the Binance platform, and is expected to take about one hour.

STP prevents API users from placing orders that would result in a self-trade, helping ensure compliance and the integrity of market data while potentially saving users trading fees. Three STP modes will be available, with EXPIRE_MAKER as the default mode for all orders on Binance Options. This update underscores Binance’s emphasis on preventing self-trades and preserving market data integrity.
