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 Dydx.
  2. 02 Decide between market and limit. Use a limit order when Dydx is moving quickly, because the live band is pulling toward the lower half 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 soft, 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.
