Binance Options will mandate Self-Transaction Prevention (STP) for all users.

CoinFeed reported on March 13th that Binance will mandate the Self-Trading Prevention (STP) feature for all Binance Options users starting at 14:00 (UTC+8) on March 19th, 2026. This update will cover spot, leveraged, futures, and options trading on the Binance platform. Please note that the system update will begin at 14:00 (UTC+8) on March 19th, 2026 and is expected to last for one hour to allow for a smooth transition. The STP feature aims to prevent API users from unintentionally engaging in self-trading, ensuring compliance and the integrity of market data, and saving users unnecessary transaction fees. The STP feature will automatically prevent the execution of orders that could lead to self-trading. Three STP modes are available, with "EXPIRE_MAKER" being the default STP mode for all Binance Options orders.
