At Limitlex, we give you everything you need to start trading confidently, moving from account verification to your first trade in just a few simple steps. Funding your account is easy, whether you prefer to deposit cryptocurrency or transfer EUR. Once your balance is good to go, there's a host of trading options to dig into. You've got the basics like market and limit orders, plus some more advanced tools like stop loss and take profit limits. And let's not forget unique Limitlex features such as Basket Buy and Random Trading.
In this guide, we'll walk you through the whole process: how to deposit funds, how to place your first trade, how fees work, and how to secure your account properly. So, let's jump in.
Step 1: Funding your account with EUR or crypto
As soon as you’ve created your account and it has been verified, you can start trading. First, you need to fund your account. We offer two simple ways to deposit funds: cryptocurrency deposits and EUR bank transfers (SEPA). If you already own cryptocurrency, transferring it to your Limitlex account is easy. Simply log in to your account and navigate to “Deposit/Withdrawal” in the top menu. From there, select the crypto you wish to deposit from the dropdown list, and your unique deposit address will be displayed. Copy this address and use it to send the selected cryptocurrency from your external wallet or exchange. Once the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain, the funds will be credited to your Limitlex account and ready for trading.
If you prefer to deposit fiat, you can fund your account in EUR via a SEPA bank transfer. After logging in, navigate to Deposit/Withdrawal, select “EUR” from the dropdown menu, and click “Get payment details”. We’ll provide the bank information you need to complete the transfer. When filling out your SEPA payment, you must include the reference code provided, which ensures your deposit is correctly linked to your Limitlex account. Please note that the minimum deposit amount is €100. Once your funds have been credited to your account, you’re ready to move on to placing your first trade and choosing the order type that best suits your strategy.
Step 2: Placing your first trade
First, choose your market or trading pair. Then, based on your strategy and how much risk you want to take on, select the order type. If you want to buy or sell your trade right away at the best price, you can use a market order. This is the easiest way to buy or sell crypto, since the platform matches your order right away with the best offer in the order book.
If you want more control over the price of your trade, you can use a limit order. whereby you set the exact price at which you want to buy or sell. Your order will only be executed if the market reaches your specified price. If you want to manage risk or automate your exit strategy, we also offer stop loss limit and take profit limit orders. A stop loss limit order helps you limit potential losses by triggering a sell (or buy) order once a certain price is reached, while a take profit limit order lets you lock in your gains when the market hits your target profit level.
Aside from these tools, we have also developed unique features such as Basket Buy and Random Trading. The Basket Buy feature allows you to purchase multiple cryptocurrencies in one transaction, helping you diversify your portfolio easily. The Random Trading feature offers a simple way to spread your investment across a random selection of cryptocurrencies based on your chosen amount. Once you’ve selected your order type, entered the amount and confirmed the details, your trade will be executed according to the conditions you set.
Step 3: Understanding our fees
Before you start trading regularly, it’s important to understand how fees work and how to properly secure your account. Limitlex only charges trading fees when your order is executed. That means we only charge fees when your order is successfully matched with another user's order. If you cancel an order before it's executed, you won't be charged anything.
There are two types of trading fees: maker fees and taker fees. A maker is basically a trader whose order is added to the order book, and they help keep the market liquid. The maker fee on Limitlex is 0.08%. A taker is a trader who places an order that immediately matches an existing order on the order book, thereby removing liquidity. That fee is 0.12%.
Fees are calculated as a percentage of the total value of the trade and are charged in the currency you receive. For example, if you're putting in a buy order, the fee is charged in the base currency you use, and if it's a sell order, it's charged in the quote currency. Depending on the asset, you might also have to pay trading, deposit and withdrawal fees.
Step 4: Keeping your account secure
Whenever and wherever you trade digital assets, security should be a top priority. At Limitlex, we suggest setting a strong and unique password that includes upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols, and avoid reusing passwords from other platforms or websites.
To add an extra layer of protection, go to your account settings and enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). Once you've activated it, you'll need to enter your password and a six-digit authentication code when you log in. You can set up 2FA using Google Authenticator or via SMS, but it's best to use an authentication app on a separate device for maximum security.
Also, make sure your devices are protected with the latest antivirus and malware software, and don't open emails or attachments from unknown sources. You can also review settings like session management and IP controls under the "Security" section in "My Account" to tailor your account protection.
And it’s that simple. All that’s left to do is get started. Visit www.limitlex.com and make your first trade.
