4.1 Buying Tokens

How swaps work (simple explanation)

When you buy or sell tokens on Trendex, you are performing a swap.

A swap = exchanging one asset for another (example: SOL → Token)

The final execution price of a swap can vary slightly due to:

• Fees (network fees, LP fees)

• Slippage (price movement during your transaction)

• Liquidity (deep liquidity = more stable price)

This behavior is standard in AMM-based crypto systems.

Disclaimer: Trading tokens involves price variability. Trendex does not guarantee execution price, profit, or future value. Users are responsible for understanding swaps and confirming the transaction before submitting.

You can buy tokens directly inside the Trendex app. You can choose to input:

• How much you want to spend (in USD or SOL) or

• How many tokens you want to receive

Trendex uses Jupiter routing to automatically find the best execution path.

Prices can vary based on:

• Liquidity depth

• Demand at that moment

• Price curve positioning

Once the swap is executed, tokens are instantly credited to your Squad — they appear in your Bench by default (not active yet for the next tournament).
