Market FAQ

The Market tab helps you find tokens across networks, follow them in your Watchlist, set price alerts, and follow large moves on the blockchain. It shows information: it doesn't hold your crypto or give investment advice. Your NFTs are on the Wallet tab: see the NFT FAQ.

Why can't I open Market?

Market needs an internet connection and a wallet that has an EVM network, such as Ethereum or BNB Chain.

• Offline, Market shows The cold wallet is currently unable to access this feature., even for a wallet that isn't a cold wallet. Check your connection.
• A wallet with no EVM network, such as one with only Bitcoin, can't use Market. Switch to a wallet that has one.

Can I trust a token because it's in Market?

No. A token being listed or searchable doesn't mean FxWallet endorses it or that it's safe. Scammers create tokens with the same name and logo as real ones, so check the contract address on the project's official website before you buy or add a token. See Fake tokens, spam airdrops and trading scams.

Why can't I find a token?

FxWallet may not support its network, or there may be no market data for it yet. Search by its name or symbol: Market doesn't search by contract address. To hold a token that Market doesn't list, add it to your wallet with its contract address: see Add a custom token.

Why is a price different from other sites?

Market data comes from FxWallet's data sources and can lag a little, so a price may differ slightly from an exchange or another site.

How do the Watchlist and price alerts work?

• Tap the star next to a token, or at the top of its page, to add it to your Watchlist. A token on several networks has an entry for each network. The Watchlist has a limit.
• Tap the bell on a token's page to set a price alert: choose Above or Below, enter the price, then tap Create Alert.
• An alert notifies you once, when the price reaches your target, and then moves to Triggered. You can't edit an alert: cancel it and create a new one.
• Alerts need notifications: go to Me → System Notification and turn on Price Alerts under Market.

Why didn't I get a price alert?

• Check that Price Alerts is on in Me → System Notification, and that your phone lets FxWallet send notifications.
• If FxWallet said Price alert created. Push is unavailable; check status in the Price Alerts list when triggered. when you set the alert, your phone can't get its notifications. Check the alert in Price Alerts → Triggered instead.
• An alert notifies you once, then moves to Triggered. Set a new one to be told again.
• Alerts belong to the wallet that set them. Tapping an alert's notification switches FxWallet to that wallet.

Why is my Watchlist empty?

Your Watchlist, price alerts and watched addresses belong to the wallet you're using, and FxWallet stores them online, not in your wallet's backup. Each wallet has its own lists, and after you reinstall FxWallet or restore your wallet on a new phone, they start empty.

What are on-chain signals?

On-chain Signals, behind the trend icon at the top of the Market tab, shows recent large buys, sells and transfers by whales (addresses that hold large amounts) and by addresses you watch. Signals are information, not advice: a whale's move doesn't tell you where a price will go.

Can I follow an address?

Yes. Tap the eye icon at the top of the Market tab to open Watched Addresses, tap +, choose the network and enter the address. Its moves then appear in On-chain Signals. Watching an address gives you no control over it, watched addresses don't send push notifications, and you can only watch a limited number.

What do Risk Assessment and Approval Status on a token's page mean?

Risk Assessment is an automated check of the token by GoPlus, a third-party security service. It can miss a scam, and when it has no data, the token isn't necessarily safe: Risk data is not supported for this asset. This does not mean it is safe.

Approval Status lists the contracts you've allowed to spend this token. Revoking one is a transaction with a network fee. See Token approvals.

What are Yield Opportunities?

Yield Opportunities lists pools on other platforms that pay yield on the token, as reported by DeFiLlama, a third-party data site: Data from DeFiLlama, updated daily. Not investment advice. They aren't FxWallet Earn products. View pool details on DeFiLlama opens DeFiLlama in the DApp browser, so anything you connect to from there is a third-party DApp. See Use DApps safely.

Can I buy or sell from Market?

Yes, through Swap. When a token can be swapped in your current wallet, its page has Buy and Sell, which open Swap with the tokens filled in. Check the tokens, the network and the amount there before you confirm. A swap costs a network fee.
