How to place an order?
You can choose between placing a Limit Order and a Market Order. The differences are as follows:
Limit Order
A Limit Order is an instruction to place an order to buy or sell at a specific price. If the market price does not hit the price set, the order will not be executed.
Market Order
A Market Order is an instruction to buy or sell an asset at the current market price. Once the order is submitted, the transaction will be executed immediately according to the latest market price.
What’s the difference between Amount and Total Orders?
Members can choose to place an order by a specific amount of an asset, or by the total value of the transaction. In the example shown, the unit is BTC to place an order by the amount, indicating how many BTC to buy or sell. If the order is placed in the form of a total amount, the unit is USDT, which means buying or selling BTC worth a certain total value of USDT. To quickly place an order, use the percentage tool to trade a percentage of the asset you hold in your wallet.
How to view open orders?
After placing an order, you can view your unfilled orders under the Open Orders section. You cancel any order you see here.
How to view completed orders?
For orders that have been filled, you can tap the Order History button at the bottom of the page.
