Your first trade

Before opening a position

Sign in, deposit, and transfer funds to trading. Keep the SOL required for setup in your wallet. Check that your trading balance is current and the action is enabled.

1. Open Markets, search for a contract and open its trading screen.
2. Review the chart, order book and market information.
3. Choose Market or Limit. A limit order also requires a limit price.
4. Enter your size and check its unit. Review leverage, order value, margin and fees shown by the app.
5. Choose Long or Short only when the side and size match your intention.
6. Follow the submission status. Check Positions and Open orders for the outcome.

A button tap, a preview, and a confirmed fill are different stages. A limit order can remain open or fill partially. Do not send a second order because the first is taking time; first inspect its status.

Read Orders and Margin and liquidation before using these controls.
