The All-In-One Platform for Serious Crypto Investors.

Sophisticated Order Types

Ndax offers a comprehensive suite of order types that go beyond simple market and limit orders, providing traders with the precision needed to execute complex strategies.

• **Limit Orders:** Place buy or sell orders at a specific price, guaranteeing the price but not the execution. This is crucial for managing risk and setting entry/exit points precisely. We allow 'Good 'Til Cancelled' (GTC) and 'Immediate or Cancel' (IOC) time-in-force options. The GTC option remains active until explicitly cancelled by the user, while IOC orders must be executed immediately or they are cancelled, ensuring that no unwanted partial fills remain.
• **Market Orders:** Execute trades instantly at the best available current market price. While offering speed, users must be aware of potential slippage, especially with large orders or low-liquidity pairs. Ndax monitors for market manipulation to ensure fair pricing.
• **Stop-Limit Orders:** A two-part order that combines a stop price and a limit price. When the market reaches the stop price, the limit order is activated. This is an essential tool for protecting profits or limiting losses by automating trade execution when specific price thresholds are crossed.
• **Trailing Stop Orders (Advanced):** This innovative order type allows the stop price to dynamically adjust as the asset's price moves favorably. It "trails" the market price by a specified percentage or dollar amount, locking in gains while still allowing for potential upward movement. If the price reverses by the specified amount, the stop is triggered.

Understanding and utilizing these advanced order types can dramatically improve a trader's efficiency and risk management profile. Ndax provides detailed tutorials and simulation environments to help users master these tools before deploying them in live markets. Our system constantly monitors order status and provides immediate notifications upon fill, cancellation, or error.

Institutional-Grade API Access

For professional traders, algorithmic funds, and high-frequency trading (HFT) firms, Ndax provides robust, low-latency REST and WebSocket APIs. Our API infrastructure is engineered for maximum throughput and minimal processing delay, crucial factors for competitive trading.

The **REST API** allows for secure management of accounts, placing and cancelling orders, checking balances, and fetching historical market data. It features comprehensive documentation and utilizes industry-standard authentication methods (API keys and signatures) to ensure the highest level of security for automated trading systems. We enforce stringent rate limits designed to maintain the stability and responsiveness of the exchange for all users while still accommodating the needs of demanding HFT strategies.

The **WebSocket API** offers a real-time, persistent connection for streaming market data, including order book updates, trade feeds, and index prices. This is vital for algorithms that require immediate information to react to market changes. The data streams are highly optimized and compressed, reducing bandwidth consumption and ensuring rapid delivery. We offer dedicated support channels for API users to assist with integration, troubleshooting, and optimization of complex trading bots. This unparalleled access empowers quantitative traders to implement sophisticated arbitrage, market-making, and statistical strategies. Our infrastructure is routinely audited and upgraded to handle increasing loads and maintain sub-millisecond execution times.

Furthermore, the API supports detailed audit logging, allowing automated systems to track every action and verify performance metrics with precision. The availability of both live and sandbox environments allows developers to rigorously test and fine-tune their algorithms before deploying them with real capital, minimizing the risk of deployment errors.

Transparent & Competitive Fee Structure

Ndax operates on a highly competitive, tiered fee structure designed to reward active traders. Our commitment is to provide among the lowest trading fees in the industry, making the platform attractive for high-volume transactions. We employ a maker-taker model, where **Maker** orders (orders that add liquidity to the order book) and **Taker** orders (orders that remove liquidity) are charged slightly different rates. This model incentivizes the continuous flow of liquidity on the exchange, benefiting all participants through tighter spreads and better execution prices.

Unlike many other exchanges, our fee tiers are straightforward and based purely on 30-day rolling trading volume. As your volume increases, your trading fee percentage decreases automatically, providing significant cost savings over time. We pride ourselves on having **zero deposit fees** for most fiat funding methods and highly transparent withdrawal fees that only cover the underlying blockchain or network costs, with no hidden markups. The execution quality is paramount; our smart order routing technology ensures that trades are filled quickly and at the best available price point, minimizing negative slippage, especially during peak market hours.

Detailed fee schedules for both fiat and crypto transactions are published clearly on our dedicated fee page, ensuring absolute transparency. Our volume-based discount program starts at surprisingly low thresholds, making professional-level trading affordable for everyone. We believe that transparent and low-cost execution is a fundamental right for every investor navigating the complex digital asset market.

Instant Fiat Deposits with Zero Fees

Getting started with Ndax is quick and cost-effective. We offer several secure and convenient methods for depositing fiat currency (CAD) into your account, and crucially, most of these methods come with **zero deposit fees** imposed by Ndax. This means more capital immediately available for trading.

• **Interac e-Transfer:** The fastest and most popular method. Funds are typically credited to your Ndax account within minutes of acceptance, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This method is ideal for retail investors needing to respond quickly to market movements.
• **Wire Transfers:** Available for larger deposits, particularly favored by institutional or high-net-worth clients. Wire transfer deposits are credited on the same or next business day, providing a secure method for transferring substantial amounts.
• **Bank Drafts/Cheques:** A traditional, reliable option. While processing times are longer due to banking procedures, it offers an additional layer of security for large, scheduled transfers.

All fiat deposits are held in segregated bank accounts with a top-tier Canadian financial institution. These funds are never commingled with Ndax operational funds, providing an essential safeguard for client capital. The minimum and maximum deposit limits for each method are clearly outlined in the funding section of your account dashboard, and these limits are dynamically adjusted based on your verified user level. Our goal is to make the transition from traditional banking to digital asset investment as smooth and instantaneous as possible.

Furthermore, we provide detailed, step-by-step instructions for each funding method, including necessary reference codes and transaction details, minimizing the chance of errors or delays. Our dedicated support team is available to assist with any funding queries, ensuring a painless process from start to finish.

Fast Crypto Deposits and Ultra-Secure Withdrawals

Ndax supports deposits and withdrawals for all listed cryptocurrencies. Crypto deposits are automatically credited to your account after the required network confirmations are met, with minimal wait times facilitated by our advanced blockchain node infrastructure. We support multiple networks for popular assets like Ethereum and stablecoins (e.g., ERC-20, Polygon), ensuring flexibility and optimized network fee usage for our clients.

Crypto withdrawals are processed with a security-first approach. All withdrawal requests undergo a multi-step verification process, including email confirmation and 2FA, before being manually or automatically batched for execution from our cold storage. This dual-layer check is crucial in preventing unauthorized transfers. Withdrawals are processed multiple times daily to ensure timely delivery of your assets, usually within a few hours.

We charge a minimal, flat fee on crypto withdrawals, which is simply designed to cover the volatile blockchain network transaction (gas) fees. Unlike some platforms, Ndax does not charge a hidden percentage fee on crypto withdrawals. The exact fee for each cryptocurrency is displayed transparently at the time of the withdrawal request. Users can easily track the status of their withdrawal via a dedicated transaction history log, complete with external blockchain explorer links for independent verification of the transaction status. This commitment to transparency and security in both fiat and crypto operations is fundamental to the Ndax client experience.

Our system utilizes sophisticated risk assessment algorithms to detect unusual withdrawal patterns. Any request that falls outside of normal user behavior may trigger an additional security review and manual verification call from our support team, adding an extra layer of protection against account compromise. We prioritize security over marginal speed, ensuring that your digital assets are always safe.
