# Buy an xStock

#### Market orders

Buying an xStock works like any swap: pick the stock, set your amount in USD, confirm.

Steps:

1. Open the Stocks account.
2. Choose the stock you want - search or browse the list.
3. Tap Buy and enter your amount in USD.
4. Review the quote: price, amount of tokens received.
5. Confirm. 

The shares land in your Stocks account within seconds.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can buy fractions of shares. 

No need to afford a full share: $10 of NVDAx is a valid position.
