   Once you have deposited funds to your account, and the funds are confirmed by the network, you are now able to exchange them for Etho Protocol on the exchange. In this case, we will be using BTC as an example, as BTC-ETHO is the main trading pair for Etho Protocol on STEX, so in order to trade other altcoins for Etho Protocol, you will need to first convert them into Bitcoin, and then trade the bitcoin for Etho Protocol.
2. 2.

   On the main page of the exchange, search for ETHO, in order to find the BTC-ETHO market.

   ​

   ​
3. 3.

   This will open up the market page, which displays useful information, including a trading view price graph, order book, market depth and the Buy / Sell section.

   1. 1.

      The order book shows the open orders on the exchange, which essentially lists the price and quantity which people are currently willing to buy/sell Etho Protocol for. The higher your order is, within the order book, the quicker it is filled.

      ​

      ​
   2. 2.

      The market depth section is a comparison of buy volume against sell volume, it helps to indicate whether more people are looking to sell or buy the coin at a particular time.

      ​

      ​
   3. 3.

      The Buy / Sell sections are where you place your order. You are required to enter the price/coin and volume which you want to buy/sell. You can click on any order in the buy/sell book to populate the buy/sell window with the correct information to fill that order.

      ​

      ​
   4. 4.

      After you submit an order to the exchange it will be present on the order book. If you decided to buy/sell for a price and volume which was already on the order book, the exchange should be completed instantly. If you opted to set your price/volume lower or higher than what the buy/sell orders are within the order book, you will need to wait for someone to fill your order.
   5. 5.

      After buying Etho Protocol through the market, you are now able to withdraw it to your Etho Protocol wallet. Conversely, if you sold Etho Protocol for bitcoin, you will now be able to withdraw the bitcoin, to your bitcoin wallet. (See the Depositing / Withdrawl section for details.)
