| Trading capacity on the secondary market |
- First you identify the other market participants you want to trade with and they need to confirm they want to trade with you. You can change your group of trading partners over time.
- Every market participant posts his bids and offers on line to the capsquare platform. There are no constraints as to price setting: you are free to determine at which price you want to sell or buy.
- Bids and offers posted on capsquare are anonymous and are earmarked if they originate from a market participant who does not belong to your group of trading partners.
- Once an offer or bid is accepted, the identity of the trading partners is disclosed to each other so as to enable the settlement.

- Any capacity offered through capsquare retains its original nature: firm capacity offered remains firm when sold and conditional capacity offered remains conditional when sold.
- For both the GRTgaz market and the Fluxys market, you can use capsquare to register your OTC transactions.
- For the Fluxys market, all secondary capacity trading transactions imply an assignment of all rights and obligations, except for the payment obligation.
- For the GRTgaz market, the short and medium term segments imply a right of use transfer, whereas the long term segments consist of a title transfer.
