Tradefor Partners with UpTrade

Tradefor is pleased to announce a long-term licensing agreement with UpTrade — an up-and-coming robo-advisory firm specializing in income-generating investment strategies.  The product licensing agreement between the two companies opens the door to a diversified product offering that bridges conventional stock trading with decentralized finance (DeFi).   

UpTrade  specializes in execution of risk-manged short option positions that includes covered-call, short-put and short-strangle strategies.  Its partnership with Tradefor  provides an innovative, peer-to-peer trading platform that uses the public Ethereum blockchain to distribute tokenized incentives to its customers.  This gives customers the ability create income-producing strategies that are largely automated.  Proceeds from successful option trades are directly deposited into a customer’s bank account, or crypto wallet, using a unique harvesting function.

UpTrade was founded by Peter Seed, a founder of TradeKing.

Tradefor is the latest start-up from Peter Seed — an online trading start-up veteran. His latest creation is a collection of peer-to-peer markets for trading tokenized assets. Customers can fund and withdraw from privately-held Ethereum wallets using the Metamask browser extension. A “gamified” trading platform, Tradefor supports one-to-one exchanges of ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens offered by brand marketers.

A Gamified Exchange

Sometimes trading can be tedious and boring. Yes, there can be reward in making a financial profit, but in a perfect world, trading should be a social exchange that has at least some entertainment value.

We built Tradefor as a gamified trading experience. Tradefor features all the usual capabilities of an exchange such as order placement, order management and order clearing. But unlike most online exchanges, Tradefor adds a distinct flare for the dramatic including the world’s first online trading pit.

Oh, and one more thing… we are passionate about the Ethereum blockchain. That is why we use Ether as buying power and also why we assign tokens on the Ethereum blockchain.
