Trade

Buy and sell any token from your app wallet, without leaving DFM.

What it is#

Besides investing in funds, you can buy and sell single tokens directly in DFM. A trade converts one token your app wallet holds into another, and the result lands back in the same app wallet.

Where you trade#

  • Buy on What’s Hot. Every token in the table has a Buy column. Its two amounts are your quick-buy amounts (the same ones as the Marketplace’s quick deposit, editable with the pencil above the table): one click buys that much of the token with USDC, with no confirmation step. The arrows open the Swap panel to choose any other amount.
  • Swap in Portfolio → App wallet. Every token you hold, SOL included, has a Swap button. It opens the Swap panel with that token to sell, into USDC by default; pick any other token to receive instead. This is how you sell.

How a trade is routed#

Liquidity comes from Jupiter, which looks across Solana’s DEXs and picks the route with the best output for the amount. The Swap panel shows the quote before you confirm, and the server takes a fresh quote at the moment it builds the trade, so the fill can move within your slippage.

  • Slippage: 0.5% by default, up to 10%. Quick buys use the slippage set next to your quick-buy amounts.
  • Before anything is signed, the app wallet’s guard simulates the trade and refuses it unless the bought token lands in your own app wallet, for at least the quoted minimum.
  • Your app wallet signs it in the browser, with no wallet popup. If the trade cannot be completed (no route, not enough USDC), nothing is sent and the reason is shown.

Fees#

Each trade pays a DFM fee of 0.2% of the amount. When one side of the trade is USDC, SOL or USDT, the fee is taken in that token inside the quote, so the amount shown to receive is the amount that arrives. For a pair with none of the three, the same rate is charged separately, in SOL.

On top of it: Solana network fees, rent for a token account the first time you hold a token, and the price impact of the route, which is part of your slippage.
