# Start Trading

Looking for info on how to trade on Telegram? Check our guide [here](/defined-docs/defined-classic/telegram-bot-guide.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
Trading is currently available for all ETH Uniswap V2 and V3 tokens, as well as many other popular EVM networks. We also support trading on Solana, including many new [launchpads](https://www.defined.fi/tokens/launchpads). 

\
\*NEW\* As of Aug 2025, we have updated our authentication methods through Turnkey which will limit the need for inputting your passkey. While passkeys are still used behind the scenes, fewer prompts mean a more seamless trading experience with fewer interruptions. If you need any assistance with your account, be sure to reach out to our team.
{% endhint %}

### Standard Buy/Sell

1. Select a token you want to buy (or sell).
2. Enter the amount of ETH/SOL to spend or select a preset value. For selling, you will select the % of tokens you'd like to sell, or manually input a token amount. We also support trading with other tokens such as USDC.
3. Choose and confirm which wallet to buy/sell with.
4. Verify Gas/Priority fees and slippage (if applicable)
5. Click Buy/Sell and then confirm (if confirmations are enabled).
6. You're done! Select New Trade to create more orders.

### Limit Orders

To set a limit order to buy or sell a token at a specific price point, select "Limit Buy" instead of "Market Buy" and enter your preferred price point to initiate a transaction. Limit Buys will trigger when the token price is at or lower than your input value (a "Stop Buy" will trigger at or above your target). Limit Sells will trigger when the token price is at or greater than your input value (Stop Sell will trigger at or below your input value, commonly known as a stop-loss).

You can also choose the expiration time of your limit order.

Once a limit order is placed, it will be indicated on the chart with a green line for buy, or red line for sell. You can cancel the limit order by clicking the "x" on the line, or by clicking the red "x" under the "My Orders" tab

Check your limit orders regularly to ensure they are still valid and within your trading and risk tolerances.
