Order types
Market orders prioritise speed of execution over price certainty. Limit orders do the opposite. Stop-market and stop-limit orders combine the two to enforce discipline.
On Nexone each order type has a short in-app explainer.
Spread and slippage
The spread is the gap between the best bid and best ask. Slippage is the difference between the price you expected and the price you got.
Both widen in thin markets and during volatile events.
Maker vs taker fees
Makers add liquidity to the book by resting limit orders; takers remove liquidity by crossing the spread. Most venues, including Nexone, charge takers more than makers.
Sizing and risk
Never risk more per trade than you can lose without changing your daily life. A common rule of thumb: cap risk per position at 1–2% of trading capital.
Position sizing is more important than picking the right coin.
Journaling
Every trade should have a thesis, an invalidation level and a size. Review weekly. Traders who journal outperform those who don't — regardless of strategy.
Common mistakes
Overtrading, revenge trades after a loss, no stop-loss discipline, using leverage before mastering spot — all avoidable with rules written down in advance.
