Getting Started
1. What is Onchain Trading?
KTX Onchain Trading is a decentralized trading service offered by KTX. It combines the flexibility of onchain trading with the convenience of a centralized exchange.
Use your existing KTX account to trade onchain tokens directly — no separate wallet, private keys, or Gas assets required. Your funds, trades, and account security are all managed through the KTX centralized system.
Supported assets: Meme tokens, tokenized US stocks
Supported networks: Solana, BNB Chain, Base, Ethereum
2. How does it differ from regular trading?
| Onchain Trading | Regular Trading | |
|---|---|---|
| Order matching | Onchain DEX liquidity pools | Centralized order book |
| Order asset | USDT | Varies by asset |
| Asset type | Onchain tokens | Platform-listed assets |
| Wallet | No separate wallet needed | Uses trading account |
3. Do I need a separate account or deposit?
No. Onchain Trading shares the same account and funds as your KTX trading account. Just log in to KTX and you're ready to go.
Onchain assets cannot be deposited directly and are not transferable to or from your regular trading account. If KTX has already listed a token with the same contract address onchain, the two assets are displayed and managed separately — there is currently no merging feature.
Networks & Assets
4. Which networks are supported? What are their use cases?
| Network | Best for |
|---|---|
| Solana | Meme trading hub — high throughput, low fees |
| BNB Chain | Rich DeFi and Meme ecosystem |
| Base | Emerging ecosystem — active Meme launches |
| Ethereum | Major public chain — large trades and quality projects |
⚠️ Watchlist and monitoring features are currently available on Solana only. Token watchlists, wallet monitoring, custom groups, and bulk import are not yet supported on other networks.
5. What can I trade?
Currently supported:
- Meme tokens
- Tokenized US stocks
Available trading pairs are shown on the Onchain Trading page.
Trading
6. What order types are available?
| Order Type | How It Works |
|---|---|
| Market Order | Executes immediately at the current market price |
| Limit Order | Triggers a market order when your target price is reached |
7. How do limit orders execute?
⚠️ Onchain limit orders work differently from traditional limit orders:
Your set price is a trigger condition, not a guaranteed execution price.
- When the market price reaches your trigger price, the system submits a market order
- Actual execution price depends on current market depth and liquidity — it is not guaranteed to equal the trigger price
- No slippage protection — if liquidity is thin, the fill price may differ significantly from your trigger price
Example: Current price is 0.001 USDT. You set a trigger price of 0.0008 USDT to buy. Once the price drops to 0.0008, the system triggers a market buy. If liquidity is low at that moment, the actual fill price may be higher than 0.0008.
8. Do limit orders expire?
No. Limit orders remain active until filled — they do not expire. To cancel, you must manually withdraw the order.
Fees
9. How are fees calculated?
Onchain trading fees consist of two parts:
| Fee | Rate |
|---|---|
| Platform Fee | 1% of the trade amount |
| Onchain Gas Fee | Determined by real-time network conditions; the consumed token is converted to USDT at market price |
Example: Buying 100 USDT worth of a token
- Platform fee = 100 × 1% = 1 USDT
- Gas fee = actual onchain consumption (converted to USDT at market price)
10. Why does the actual fee differ from what's shown?
The displayed Gas fee is an estimate. Final fees are calculated based on actual onchain consumption at the time of execution. Onchain Gas fees fluctuate with network congestion, so the actual amount charged may differ from the estimate.
Account & Assets
11. Why does my onchain asset show a contract address?
The same token name may exist across different contracts onchain, including fake or impersonating tokens. KTX displays the contract address to help you verify the authentic asset.
12. Can I deposit or transfer onchain assets?
No. Onchain assets do not support:
- Direct deposits
- Transfers to or from your regular trading account
- Deposit address display
If KTX has listed a token with the same contract address on both the centralized and onchain sides, assets are currently not mergeable and are displayed and traded separately.
Watchlist & Wallet Monitoring
13. Can I watchlist tokens or monitor other wallets?
Yes, but Solana network only.
- Token Watchlist: View market cap, liquidity, holder count, 24h trading volume / price change / trade count, token age, and more
- Wallet Monitoring: View wallet balance, 7-day trade count and win rate, with message and sound alert toggles
14. What does the blacklist do? How many rules can I add?
Adding a project to your blacklist hides its tokens from the frontend listing.
You can block by:
- Developer address, contract address, token, keyword, website, Twitter account
Up to 1,000 rules supported.
Charts
15. What chart timeframes are available?
From 1 second to 1 day.
| Use case | Recommended timeframe |
|---|---|
| Meme short-term trading | 1s / 5s / 1m |
| Short-term trend analysis | 15m / 1h |
| Medium- to long-term analysis | 4h / 1d |
Orders & Positions
16. Where can I view my orders and positions?
At the bottom of the Onchain Trading page:
- Holdings: Your current onchain token positions
- Open Orders: Limit orders waiting to trigger
- Order History: All submitted orders (filled and cancelled)
- Trade History: Executed trades with price, quantity, and fee details
Risk Disclosure
17. What are the risks of onchain trading?
| Risk | Details |
|---|---|
| Price volatility | Meme tokens can swing dramatically in seconds |
| Low liquidity | Thin order books mean large orders may move the price significantly |
| No slippage protection | Limit orders trigger at market price — fills may be far from your trigger price |
| Gas fee fluctuations | Network congestion can drive Gas costs well above estimates |
| Estimated amounts are indicative only | Actual proceeds may differ from displayed estimates |
18. How can I reduce trading risk?
- Use limit orders on pairs with strong liquidity and deep order books
- Avoid using limit orders during extreme market conditions
- Use the blacklist to filter known high-risk projects
- Monitor Gas fee trends — avoid trading during network congestion
- Regularly review and manage your open limit orders
