Crypto Glossary: Core Assets, Orders, and Risk Controls
Summary
This glossary briefly defines Bitcoin, Ethereum, decentralized applications, initial coin offerings, and investor slang such as FOMO and HODL. It also explains KYC and anti-money-laundering checks as exchange compliance practices.
The trading entries describe good-till-cancelled orders, which stay open until filled or cancelled, and immediate-or-cancel orders, which execute available quantity at once and may fill partially. Take-profit and stop-loss instructions are presented as preset exit prices. The page is only a sparse introduction: its promised analysis and strategy sections contain no further definitions, and it offers no evidence, examples, or guidance on order selection and execution risks.
Key ideas
- Good-till-cancelled orders remain open until they are filled or cancelled.
- Immediate-or-cancel orders execute available quantity immediately and can be partially filled.
- Take-profit and stop-loss instructions specify prices for closing a position.
- The glossary defines several crypto concepts and exchange compliance terms but gives little analytical depth.
