There is a quick access panel on the top of the page for your watchlist. Note that if you have not yet created a watchlist, then the quick access will show the 'Top Assets'. However, after creating a watchlist the 'Top Assets' becomes your watchlist.&#x20;

For our first trade, lets buy some Bitcoin.&#x20;

**Step 1**

Go to the 'Buy & Sell Crypto' and select BTC. Then on the right hand side of the page, put in the amount, for example 1,000 USDg. Then click 'Approve Buy Order (1/3)'.&#x20;

And that's it!

You can now see your purchase and additional information in the 'Transaction History' at the bottom of the page and in '[My Portfolio'](/glue-alphanet/welcome-to-glue-alphanet/alphanet-user-guide/my-portfolio.md).&#x20;

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Sell Some BTC" %}
The Sell function works exactly like the Buy function. Simply select Sell and follow the same steps as you would for buying.
