About SignalPlus

Established in 2021, SignalPlus is a Hong Kong-based enterprise technology company developing an open and accessible platform for professional cryptocurrency options trading. The firm was co-founded by CEO Chris Yu and COO James Shan. Yu brings extensive experience in macro trading, specifically in FX and FX options, from his time at Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Shan is a serial entrepreneur with a background in mobile internet and enterprise SaaS. Their journey began in 2007 at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, where they bonded over a shared entrepreneurial ambition. After separate successful careers, they reunited, identifying a significant gap in the crypto options market, which lacked the professional-grade infrastructure common in traditional finance.

Read full description

SignalPlus provides institutional-grade trading tools and automated solutions for the crypto derivatives market. The company primarily serves institutional clients such as financial institutions, crypto-native funds, and professional options traders. Its business model is volume-based, generating revenue from trading activity facilitated through its platform. The firm has established partnerships with major cryptocurrency exchanges including Binance, Bybit, Deribit, and OKX, integrating their liquidity into its system. Since its inception, SignalPlus has secured a total of $23 million in funding over two rounds. This includes a $12 million Series A in August 2022 and an $11 million Series B in January 2025, with investors like AppWorks, OKX Ventures, and HashKey Capital.

The company's core offering is a comprehensive platform centered on an options-centric dashboard that delivers institutional-grade pricing, analytics, risk management, and direct trading capabilities. Key features include the "Trading Toolkit Pro" for analytics and backtesting, and an AI-powered "Market Making Robot". The platform enables advanced functionalities like automated option market making, dynamic delta hedging, multi-leg and batch execution, and the pricing of complex structured products via API. This allows for 24/7 liquidity provision and risk management with reduced human oversight, addressing the continuous nature of crypto markets. By consolidating liquidity from multiple exchanges and offering sophisticated automation, SignalPlus aims to streamline trading, enhance capital efficiency, and lower the entry barrier for institutional participants in the crypto options space.
