Trading on GroFi Dex is exceptionally user-friendly compared to many exchanges. You won't feel overwhelmed by complex charts or technical terminology. GroFi Dex Smart Router takes care of trading routes and calculations on your behalf, ensuring a seamless experience.

Before you can trade, you will need a U2U wallet or an EVM-compatible wallet. Find out how to get one [here](/getting-started/how-to-connect-wallet.md).

## Buy/Sell on the GroFi Dex exchange

**Step 1:** Go to [GroFi Dex](https://testnet.grofidex.io/) website.&#x20;

**Step 2:** To unlock your wallet, simply click on **Connect Wallet** (also accessible in the top right-hand corner).

**Step 3:** Select the token you wish to pair (tokens to buy/sell) from the drop-down menu in the upper section. Ensure you have an adequate balance of the chosen token in your wallet for trading. Your current balance is displayed above the token drop-down menu.

**Step 4:** Enter the amount of tokens you want to purchase in the Amount (Token) section to input the amount of tokens you want to Buy (receiving amount). Or, enter an amount of tokens in the Total (Token) section to input the amount of tokens you want to spend to Buy (spending amount).

Regardless of which section you input your amount, the corresponding amount in the other section will be automatically estimated.

**Step 5:** Check all the details and click the **Buy** button.

If you're trading a token for the first time, you may need to click "Enable XXX (your token)" to authorize it.
