How to place a buy order?
Once you have decided and located the crypto you would like to invest in, press the floating “Buy” button on the crypto details screen.
In case you already have some open positions in the selected crypto, the “Trade” button should be visible for you. Tap on it and select “Buy” to place a buy order.
On the next screen, you can see the indicative crypto price* and select the amount you’d like to invest – you can choose from the visible suggestions or type in a custom amount.
The minimum amount you can invest is 2 EUR.
You can only invest up to the number of available funds in your account. If you’d like to invest more, simply tap on “Deposit”.
By default, the order type is set to a Market order (a one-time purchase). You can change the order type by tapping on “Market order” and selecting a different type. Check all the available types in our article: What are the different order types available in Shares?.
When you are ready, press the “Review” button.
The order review will appear. Review the details of the order and tap on “Confirm”, once happy with the selection.
Choose the visibility setting for your trade and add a note, if you wish to. More information about the visibility settings of trades can be found in our article: How to define the visibility of your trades in the Social feed and in your user profile?
Unlike stocks, there are no regular market hours limitations, so no matter what time you place your crypto order, it should be executed within a few minutes maximum.
*Keep in mind that the prices of cryptocurrencies displayed in the app are indicative, and based on the latest transaction, but the actual execution price may vary.
