# Flamingo Advanced Trade

[Advanced Trade](https://flamingo.finance/trade/advanced) is a new trading section for advanced traders on [Flamingo.Finance](http://flamingo.finance) where you can search for and select trading pairs, see data on the price history of trading pairs, execute trades, and more. 

**Note:** You can also still use **Convert** to trade assets in a more simple form of trading if you wish. 

A **trading pair** is two assets that can be traded against each other, usually on an exchange. They are often displayed as such: BTC/USD. When they are displayed as such, the first asset is called the **base asset** and the second asset is called the **quote asset**. In the case of this BTC/USD trading pair example, BTC would be the base asset and USD would be the quote asset. Think of it like this: when the trading pair is BTC/USD, the prices are quoted in USD.

### **Area A  - Trading Pair Info** 

On the **Trading Pair Info** panel, you can get information about the selected trading pair at a glance and see the price of the base token in USD no matter the quote token. 

### **Area B  - Trading List** 

On the **Trading List**, you can see all trades on the trading pair happening live, and can also check your own trading history for the active pair. 

### **Area C  - Trading View** 

You can get the full power of **Trading View**™ on your favorite Flamingo trading pair. You can add indicators, compare prices against other pairs, and see live prices down to the minute. 

### **Area D  - Trade Panel** 

On the **Trade Panel**, you'll be able to buy and sell the token of the selected pair by dragging easy-to-use sliders or setting amounts manually. For now, the **Trade Panel** only features **market orders** (see below to learn how to execute one), but **limit orders** (together with a complete on-chain order book) will come soon. 

### **Area E  - Trading Pair Selector** 

On the **Trading Pair Selector**, you can browse and select the pair you wish to trade in the searchable trading pair list on the right. Here, you can also get a glance on how every trading pair on Flamingo is performing at the moment.

## How to Execute a Market Order 

A **market order** is an order to buy or sell a token at the market's current best available price. A market order typically ensures an execution, but it does not guarantee a specified price. Market orders are optimal when the primary goal is to execute a trade immediately. We'll walk you through how to execute one. 

Things you will need:

* A computer with an installed internet browser
* A Neo N3 wallet
* Assets to trade 
* Neo N3 GAS tokens for transaction fees

1\. Go to [Flamingo Finance Trade](https://flamingo.finance/trade/overview) > **Advanced Trade**.
