Web Version
Step 1 Go to the Spot Trading Page
Click "Spot" in the top navigation bar to expand the dropdown menu.
Select "Spot Trading" from the dropdown to enter the trading page.
※ The menu also contains "Spot Bot", "MEME Master", and "Convert". Make sure you select "Spot Trading".
Step 2 Select a Trading Pair
After entering the page, the current trading pair is shown in the top left corner (① default is BTC/USDT). If you want to change it, continue to the next step.
Type a coin name such as ETH or SOL into the search bar at the top of the left panel (②).
Click the target trading pair from the list (③). The candlestick chart and order book will update in real time.
Step 3 Set the Order Type
Confirm that the right panel is showing the "Spot Trading" tab (④).
Select an order type (⑤):
Market (Smart) Executes immediately at the best available market price. No price input required.
Limit Set a target price manually. The order executes only when the market reaches that price.
Batch Buy Places orders across multiple price levels to average your entry cost.
Stop Limit Sets trigger conditions to execute automatically when the price reaches a specified level.
Step 4 Enter the Amount
Click the currency dropdown on the right side of the amount field (⑥) to select a quote currency (e.g. USDT).
Enter the amount or quantity you want to buy in the amount field (⑦). You can also use the 25% / 50% / 75% / 100% quick buttons to fill in a proportion of your available balance.
※ Make sure your available balance is sufficient. Insufficient balance will prevent the order from being filled.
Step 5 Review and Submit
Confirm that "Slippage Control" is checked (⑧). The system uses an AI-recommended value by default and does not need to be adjusted in most cases.
Once all settings are confirmed, click "Buy BTC" (or "Sell") to submit the order.
After submission, you can check the order status under "Orders" in the top navigation bar.
