# Execute Your First Trade

### Execute Your First Trade

This tutorial explains the basic trading flow.

#### Step 1: Select a Wallet

Choose the wallet account you want to trade with. Confirm that the wallet has enough balance for the trade amount and network fees.

#### Step 2: Find an Asset

Use the market list, watchlist, search, social channel, or token link to open the asset page.

#### Step 3: Review the Token Page

Before trading, review:

* Contract address.
* Network.
* Price.
* Liquidity.
* Market cap.
* Volume.
* Recent trades.
* Holders.
* Chart trend.
* Community discussion.

#### Step 4: Enter the Trade

Select buy or sell, enter the amount, and review the estimated output. Use percentage shortcuts only after confirming the available balance.

#### Step 5: Confirm Carefully

Before confirming, check the asset, wallet, chain, amount, route, fees, and slippage. After confirmation, the transaction may be irreversible.
