Overview

Using the Gradient.

Gradient is currently in a v1 public release phase. Only $GRAY is publicly open for trade on the platform. For more information on the public rollout click here.

In order to begin trading on the Gradient, start by connecting your DeFi wallet to the platform by clicking the “Connect Wallet” button.

1. Selecting a token to trade

Now that your wallet is connected, you may select a token to buy or sell, price-impact free. In the case of the v1 you must select the GRAY token.

To do this, click the “select” button.

Then, type “GRAY” in the search bar and click the GRAY token to select it for trade.

To switch between buying and selling an asset, click the middle button on swap page.

2. Executing a trade

If the asset you’ve selected may be instantly traded, the green light indicating “Instant Trade Available” will display at the top of the swap page.

If no instant trade is available, the “Auto-Fallback” toggle will appear instead.

Next, enter a Time-to-Live (Amount of time before your order is cancelled or falls back to DEX) and a Max/Min Price (The maximum or minimum price you are willing to buy/sell an asset for).

When Auto-Fallback is turned on, your order will be routed through DEX once your Time-to-Live (TTL) expires, so long as market price respects your Max/Min Price setting.

Once you’ve set or settings, or if an instant trade is available, simply click the “Swap” button to execute your trade, and confirm the transaction in your MetaMask or DeFi wallet.

3. Setting a limit order

To set a limit order, begin by setting the price at which you wish to buy or sell the selected asset. Limit prices can be set in either ETH or USDT.

Next, input an amount you wish to trade with, click the “Swap” button, and confirm the transaction in your MetaMask or DeFi wallet.

5. Viewing and managing orders

To view and manage your orders, click the “My Orders” tab.

To route an order or the remainder of an order through DEX, click the “Fallback” button under the order details, then click the “Fallback” button in the pop-up and confirm the transaction in your wallet.

To cancel an order or the remainder of an order, click the “Cancel” button under the order details, then click the “Cancel Order” button in the pop-up and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
