How to use DefiExchange

1. Practice first. A Practice account starts with 10,000 virtual USDT on live market prices. No real order is ever sent.
2. A tool follows rules; it does not predict. Our own tests of the Signal rules lost money, and the Signal window says so. Treat every signal as a risk calculator.
3. Never give a key withdrawal permission. An exchange key for these tools needs trading only. If a site asks you to turn on Withdraw, stop.
4. Use a stop-loss. It is held by the exchange, so it still works if your browser is closed.
5. Only risk what you can afford to lose. Leveraged products can lose your whole margin.

Practice or live? The top bar says Practice · live prices in practice mode and LIVE · real money when real orders are possible. If you are not sure which you are in, do not press Buy, Sell or Open.

You can place your first practice trade in about two minutes, with no deposit and no card.

1. Create a free account with your email and a long password, then open the trading terminal and press Practice.
2. The trade page opens with 10,000 virtual USDT. Check that the top bar says Practice · live prices.
3. Pick a market at the top left (ETH-USDT by default) and a chart time (1m to 1D).
4. In the order box on the right choose Market, Limit, Stop or TP/SL, then Buy or Sell.
5. Set the size with the box or the 25 / 50 / 75 / 100% buttons. Tick Add take-profit / stop-loss and fill both, so the trade has an exit if it goes wrong.
6. Leave Confirm before sending ticked and press the green button. Your position shows in Balances, Open Orders and Trade History under the chart.

Practice results never carry over to real money, and they do not predict real results.

The Signal is a risk calculator, not a prediction. It reads recent prices with fixed, visible rules and fills your order form with an entry, a take-profit, a stop-loss and a size for the risk you pick.

1. On the trade page press Signal — entry, TP, SL & size.
2. Read the window. If it says WAIT, there is no setup right now, and that is a normal answer.
3. If it says BUY, choose how much of your account you are willing to lose on the trade. The window shows the lot size that matches.
4. Press the fill button. Your order form is filled in. Check it, then send it yourself.

On real money the exit orders sit on the exchange, so they still work if the page is closed. Keep Max per entry low, start in Practice, and watch the Bot tab log to see why the bot did or did not trade. The bots are experimental and none is a promise of profit.

The Arbitrage tab compares prices across exchanges and shows what is left after fees. It shows prices only: it never places a real order.

1. Open the Arbitrage tab under the chart.
2. Read the note at the top. Arbitrage means buying a coin where it is cheaper and selling it where it is dearer.
3. For each coin the table shows the best buy price on one exchange, the best sell price on another, and the result after trading fees.
4. Use the calculator to try your own amount, then the practice buttons to run the trade with virtual money.

Most of the time you will see a small loss after fees. That is normal, and it is the first lesson. A real gap is rare, small and closes in seconds, and in real life you also pay to move coins between exchanges and wait for them to arrive.

The Gold tab has two parts: an always-on study of gold, and a gold CFD simulator you trade with $10,000 of virtual money. Nothing in it places a real order.

The study watches gold around the clock and records LONG or SHORT signals with the outcome of each, so you can see a track record instead of a promise. Read the warning box at the top first: past signals do not predict future ones.

The practice account:

1. Open the Gold tab and find the practice section.
2. Choose Buy (long) if you expect gold to rise, or Sell (short) if you expect it to fall.
3. Enter a size in ounces, pick leverage (1x, 2x, 5x, 10x or 20x), and set a stop-loss and take-profit.
4. The line under the form shows the fill price, the position value, the margin needed, and how many dollars you gain or lose for every $1 gold moves.
5. Press Open trade. Close it by hand, or let the stop-loss or take-profit close it.

The simulator adds a small spread and a daily holding cost, and closes your trade if your losses eat half of the margin (a stop-out). Reset practice account puts the balance back to $10,000.

To trade real money you add an exchange API key to your vault. The vault is encrypted with a passphrase only you know. Some regions, including Ontario, restrict KuCoin, so check what is allowed where you live first.

1. On KuCoin, create a new API key. Tick General and Spot Trading only. Leave Withdrawal, Transfer and Margin off.
2. Restrict the key to the server's IP address when KuCoin offers it. Copy the key, the secret and the API passphrase you chose.
3. On the trade page press Vault (top right) and add the key. Choose a vault passphrase of at least 10 characters that you do not use anywhere else.
4. The button changes to Unlocked. You can trade now. Press it again to lock when you are done.

The vault locks by itself when you sign out and whenever the server restarts, for example after an update. Unlock it again with your passphrase.

1. In Safari, log in at defiexchange.ca and open Trade.
2. Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow), scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen, then Add.
3. Back in Safari, tap Get my sign-in code in the box at the bottom of the terminal. You get a code like ABCD-EFGH.
4. Open DX Trade from your home screen and type the code. It works once and runs out after 5 minutes. You can ask for a new one.

• Live prices need internet. Without a connection the app shows an offline page. Nothing is stored on your phone: no prices, balances or keys.
• It is the same terminal. Practice account, Signal, Arbitrage, Gold and the bots work as on the computer, and your exchange keys stay in your own vault.
• Stop-losses live on the exchange. They keep working if you close the app.
• Computer. In Chrome or Edge you can also install it from the icon at the right end of the address bar.
