Here, you will find all sorts of cryptocurrencies to trade. You will see the most common ones at the top, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), and more. These are among the biggest currencies and could be a good place to start.
But don’t worry, if you have another crypto asset in mind, chances are that you can find it on BingX. Simply use the search function to find what you are looking for. You can also hit the star icon to add a market to your favorites, making them available easier for future trades.
At last, you will find three boxes at the top of the markets screen. These will show you a few assets that have stood out in the last 24 hours. It shows the “24h hot,” “24h highest change,” and a new listing.
As for your first trade, it’s advised that you head to the “spot” tab to make a spot order. BingX also allows you to do futures trading, but that will take a bit more experience.
When you have found the market you are looking for, press the blue “trade” icon, and you will be sent to the market’s trading page. This is where it can get confusing for newcomers, but it’s actually very simple.
What you will focus on the most is the graph which shows the latest movements of the respective crypto asset, in this case, BTC/USDT.
The graph automatically shows the changes within the last 15 minutes, but you can filter, showing the timeframe from down to 1 minute and up to 1 month. The graph has many other functions for analysis, but just use it to indicate the current value for now.
Besides the graph itself, you want to look to the right of the screen. This is where you will place your order to either make a purchase or sell off an asset. In this case, we will look at how to buy some BTC/USDT.
First, you choose whether you want to place a market or limit order. In this case, we will place a standard market order, which will be the easiest for beginners. After that, place the amount you want to buy in USDT. Note that 1 USDT = 1 USD. Be aware that you can’t place a higher amount than you have in your USDT account.
After that, you simply hit the green “buy BTC” button and make your first purchase. If you don’t have enough funds in your account or want to get more, you can use the buttons below the buy buttons to help you out. Here, you’ll find a button for easy access to depositing, transferring, and buying crypto.
After you have made your first spot order, you will be ready to follow the development of your newly-purchased asset under the “my assets” tab.
