5. Start trading on CEX.io

Below you can find the step by step process to buy your first coin. It’s rather straightforward but you need to be careful with a few aspects.

Access https://cex.io/trade

  • Select the correct symbol for the EncryptoTel (ETT) you need to buy
  • Choose the right pair ( for eg. BTC/ USD, BTC/EUR or BTC/GBP if your account is funded with USD, Euro or British Pounds)

Scroll down until you reach the Buy/Sell section:

What is the difference between Market/Limit?

Market stands for the market price. Basically, the asking price of that moment on the exchange and Limit is a fixed price which you are willing to offer for that coin.

Let me put it in simpler words it’s like you want to buy a used car and you go to a website and see different offers for the same model. You can either choose to buy it from whoever wants to sell it first, irrespective of the price they ask. Or, you have in mind a budget you are willing to spend and base the purchase on this, choosing an offer or negotiating with an owner so that you purchase at the maximum price you are willing to pay.  

There might be cases in which you decide to purchase at the market price to do it faster or for other reasons. But most of the cases we suggest you go for the limit option and maybe wait a bit so that your order gets filled.

For the moment even if the option is there we suggest you do not use Margin trading, this involving a high risk.

So :

  1. Input the amount you want to buy.
  2. Input the price you are willing to pay.
  3. Click Place Order.

You will see your order if you scroll down to the  Active Orders section.

You need to wait until this is filled and voila! You have your first crypto!

Congratulations! You just bought your first EncryptoTel (ETT) on CEX.io.
