Step-by-step buying guide

  1. 01 Choose the best active venue. Compare the live venues first so you buy on the exchange with the best combination of price, spread, and liquidity for Hbar.
  2. 02 Decide between market and limit. Use a limit order when Hbar is moving quickly, because the live band is near the upper band and the order book can shift before your trade executes.
  3. 03 Verify the account before funding. Complete the exchange verification flow, enable two-factor authentication, and confirm withdrawal settings before you send money.
  4. 04 Buy only the amount you planned. The current market is firm, so keep the order size aligned with the asset’s current range instead of chasing the move.
  5. 05 Move long-term holdings to self-custody. Keep only active trade funds on exchange and move long-term holdings to self-custody after the purchase.
