Before placing an order
The conditions behind every price.
Volatility
Fast market movement can change quoted prices and the level at which an order is completed.
Liquidity
Available liquidity affects spreads and execution, particularly in quieter sessions or larger positions.
Trading hours
Each market follows its own schedule. Cryptocurrencies and prediction markets may differ from exchange sessions.
Risk controls
Position size and supported stop-loss or take-profit settings should be reviewed before placing an order.
Market access does not remove risk. Prices can move against a position, losses can occur, and product terms vary. Review the instrument information and order details before making a trading decision.
Questions
Buying and selling, explained clearly.
What does buy and sell mean in trading?
Buying expresses a view that a market may rise, while selling expresses a view that it may fall. The exact product, ownership model and settlement terms depend on the selected instrument and are shown before an order is placed.
Which markets can I buy and sell on Solaris Black?
Solaris Black provides access to forex, indices, shares, commodities, metals, energy, cryptocurrencies and prediction markets. Availability, hours and trading terms differ by instrument.
Why are the buy and sell prices different?
The difference between the two quoted prices is the spread. It can vary by market, liquidity, time of day and volatility.
Can I sell a market without owning it first?
This depends on the instrument and account terms. Where short selling is supported, a sell position can be used to express a view that the market may decline. Product details are presented on the order ticket.
