How to trade This guide assumes you already have a working account and you have deposited to EtherDelta. This means you should have a balance in the "EtherDelta" column. You should also have some ETH in the "Wallet" column to pay for gas fees when you trade. Pick a token to trade. This guide will assume you have chosen PLU. Most tokens are listed in terms of ETH. For example, a price of 0.03 PLU/ETH means 1 PLU costs 0.03 ETH. In the order book, there are green orders and red orders stacked on top of each other. Green orders are people who want to buy PLU. Red orders are people who want to sell PLU. If you want to buy PLU, you can click a red order. If you want to sell PLU, you can click a green order. EtherDelta only allows you to match against one order per transaction. You can't do a "market buy" that trades against multiple orders at once. Partial fills are allowed. For example, if there is an order to sell 100 PLU, you can click

At one point following the evolution, it took the form of a feather, a stone and even a shell. Money’s value depended on its appearance or condition, and at times it was merely valued because of its beauty or practicality. However, the real value was ultimately based on its availability since the item was often difficult to acquire or produce. πŸ‘‰ What is a 'Cryptocurrency'? According to inv
