Buying crypto
1046958.35.0
Crypto buy orders settle instantly after they fill and appear in your Fidelity Crypto® account positions.
Cash committed to open orders is the cash allocated to pending orders before your trade is executed. The amount committed to open orders decreases your cash available to trade.
You can transfer money into your Fidelity Crypto® account while placing your buy order if your funding account has enough settled money. When an “Insufficient funds” message appears in the order review, choose “Add funds” to transfer settled money from your funding account and then continue with your order.
Due to the potential movement of the price per coin during trade execution, you can buy crypto with up to 95% of your available cash when placing buy orders in coin amounts. To buy with more than 95% of your available cash, you can enter the buy quantity in dollar amounts.
