# Your first trade

1. Open **tokens**, the board of every token, and pick one. Search by name, ticker, contract or creator.
2. On the token's page, open the desk: the buy and sell panel. Choose **buy** or **sell** and enter an amount.
3. Read the quote: **you receive (estimated)**, **minimum received** and the **trading fee**.
4. Press **buy** or **sell**, then confirm in your wallet.

The trade is final once it confirms on chain. Your holdings and activity appear in your [portfolio](../account/portfolio.md).

Next: [trade a token](../trading/trade-a-token.md) explains the desk, and [fees](../trading/fees.md) what a trade costs.
