How to Switch Between Simple and Professional Mode on OKX Trading Interface
OKX App's Simple and Professional modes can be switched in two main ways: one is to find theInterface Modeoption on theMypage, which syncs the change across all devices after switching; the other is to quickly toggle via the menu in the top-right corner of the trading page, which is more suitable for temporary adjustments.
1. Permanent Switch via theMyPage
This operation changes your account's default settings, and the changesyncs across all devices, so you don't need to repeat the setup on each phone.
Steps:
Open the OKX App and tap theMyicon in the bottom-right corner to enter the personal center.
Find theInterface Modeoption in the top area and tap to enter.
SelectProfessionalorSimplefrom the pop-up list.
After confirming the switch, the App will automatically refresh the current interface layout.
2. Quick Switch on the Trading Page
This method is suitable for temporary adjustments — for example, if you usually use Simple mode but occasionally need to view the full K-line data in Professional mode, the interface will revert to the original mode after exiting the trading page.
Steps:
Enter theSpotorFuturestrading page.
Tap the three-dot icon (⋯) in the top-right corner to open the menu.
SelectSwitch to ProfessionalorSwitch to Simplefrom the dropdown.
The interface will rearrange in real-time, and the K-line toolbar and order book levels will update simultaneously.
3. Switching on the Web Version
Switching on the web version is more straightforward and doesn't require entering the settings menu:
Steps:
Log in to the OKX official website and enter any trading page.
Find the current version label (e.g.,LiteorPro) in thetop-right cornerof the page.
Click the label and select the target version from the dropdown menu.
The page will refresh automatically without reloading.
4. Key Differences Between the Two Versions
Before switching, clarify what you need:
| Feature | Simple Mode | Professional Mode |
|---|---|---|
| Target Users | Beginners, those seeking quick trades | Advanced users, those needing technical analysis |
| Core Features | Buy/Sell, Assets, Market Data | Full K-line chart tools, technical indicators |
| Order Book | Simplified display | Full buy/sell order book, depth chart |
| Advanced Tools | Not displayed | Stop-loss/take-profit, multi-period indicator overlays |
The core advantage of Simple mode is a clean interface and short operation path, ideal for quick trades; the core advantage of Professional mode is access to full market depth and chart analysis tools, suitable for monitoring positions and making technical judgments.
5. What to Do If the Switch Doesn't Work?
If the interface doesn't change after following the steps, check in order:
1. Clear App CacheOld version UI resources may be cached, causing the new interface to load incorrectly. In your phone's system settings, find the OKX app → Storage → Clear cache (do not select "Clear data," or your login status will be lost).
2. Check App VersionEnsure the OKX App is updated tov6.80.0 or higher. Older versions may have interface rendering compatibility issues, causing the Professional mode entry to be invisible.
3. Hard Refresh on WebWindows: Ctrl + Shift + R; Mac: Cmd + Shift + R, to force fetch the latest resources.
