Who knows? You may have to up your bid price to get filled quickly as there are 9 or 10 bids higher than yours.

Thanks so much, I had to use the options in the sell order and bought some LEO, but something strange happened. The amount I clicked to buy got split, some were transferred to me and the rest were sold without me requesting to sell them.

Do you have an idea why that happened, or is it normal considering that the seller doesn't have enough LEO? I was just surprised that happened.

Hard to explain in short form, but basically this is how things work in a order book. When you go to buy you list a bid price and # to buy. Whenever a sellers ask price matches your bid the transaction will take place, but only for the # they listed to sell.

Hard to explain and I hope I am not just explaining something you already know. If you want to buy a set number, you can just click the red market buttin over the buy section when entering your order. You will not get the best price when doing this however.

The best thing to do is google how to trade an order book or something like that and bone up on it. 😜

Or...you can go to beeswap or tribaldex and trade SWAP.HIVE/LEO on the liquidity pools there.
