With the new law, anyone who participates in investment can buy IEO successfully, not fight over. And the purchase rate will be higher if you hold more HT.
FastTrack
I would like to quote the paragraph in another article on Blogtienao
"Each month, Huobi Global announces the names of five projects that will join FastTrack. Using HT, you can get multiple votes for projects within a weekly poll. The project which receives the most votes weekly will be selected to be listed on Huobi Global on the same day as the result of voting.

Users who voted for the winning project, will be able to buy project tokens at a price 50% lower than their market value.
Moreover, the 10 lucky users among the HT users who participated in voting for the winning project will be exchanged all their HT votes for the project token.

Blogtienao has made a separate article about this token, you can read at the link below:
What is Huobi Token? Overview of the Huobi Token (HT) cryptocurrency
The benefits that HT token brings
Here are some interesting benefits that HT token holders enjoy:
- HT users in the transaction can receive a discount on transaction fees (up to 50%) and can receive VIP membership rights.

Trading fees on Huobi
Huobi divides transaction fees into two categories, one for casual traders and one for professional traders.
Fees for ordinary traders
Fees for professional traders
Note: Traders holding over 100,000 HT will receive a 35% discount rate.
With the above two fee tables, it can be seen that Huobi has used the new hierarchical fee structure.
Here, Blogtienao will guide you how to reduce transaction fees:
Step 1: Log in to your Huobi account and then on the item "Install fee rate"
Step 2: You can see the current fee rate, in my case it is:
- Charge current 0.2%
- Two Buttons have not turned on, the 30-day trading volume is 6.47 btc
- The number of holding HT is 349 HT
Step 3: You turn on one of the two buttons on the right, if you have PointCard then select it to reduce the fee. And if you do not have but only HT then select the Button above. In my case, I will select the HT button to reduce the fee
Then choose “confirm”, the system has estimated the level of Lv you will be entitled, as your account is Lv3.
For those who hold more HT, the fee will be greatly reduced. Those who are loyal to HT hold long, the trade fee is very very low. You can refer to the picture below:
After confirming, it will display like that, it was successful, Now when you conduct the transaction, the fee will be 0.16% instead of 0.2% as before.
In addition, Huobi now also supports buying coins with Visa and Mastercard. However, the fee for this service is very high, about 3-5%.

Some basic knowledge to grasp before trading
Trading order
To trade cryptocurrencies on an exchange, you must place a trade order. When you want to buy, place a buy order. If you want to sell, place a sell order.
You can understand the trading order is a way to understand how much you want to buy or sell coins.
Some types of orders: Limit (Limit), Market (Market), Stop-Limit (Stop-limit).
Limit orders
This command helps you buy coins at the desired price. For example, if you want to buy Bitcoin for 8,000 USD, you will place a limited order for 1 BTC for 8,000 USD
Market order (Marker)
This order allows you to buy / sell Bitcoin quickly at market prices without having to wait like the limit order.
For example, you see Bitcoin is down 20% so you want to buy at a bargain price. You will place a market order for instant trading, without missing an opportunity.
Stop-limit order
This order is usually used to cut losses in case the price drops sharply. Reduce the risk of peak swing. Or buy when breakout resistance.
However, this type of command is vulnerable to “hunting sharks”. That is, they will push the price to break down the support or resistance area and then the price returns to its original position.
A simple example for you to understand: I want to buy BTC for 8,000 USDT and accept a loss of 100 USD. To preserve the capital and not suffer any further losses. Now I will place a stop loss order with a stop price of 7,910 USDT and a limit of 7,900 USDT.
At this time, the price stop is the condition to activate the limit price. This means that when the Bitcoin price drops to 7,910 USDT the floor will automatically place an order of 7,900 USDT.
The difference of 10 USDT is used for depreciation when the speed of dropping is too strong, to avoid the case that the price does not match. Therefore, you should not set the price difference too little with the stop price.
It should be noted when using the stop-limit command:
- when the sell: Price stops bigger price limit
- when the buy: Price stops less price limit
Market
The market is the main currency traded there. For example, you buy and sell normally in Vietnam. The market here is the VND market.
The BTC market is the use of BTC to trade with other coins.
Trading pair
The trading pair is the price of one coin relative to another. In the BTC market, there are pairs of transactions *** / BTC. Similar to HT market, there are pairs *** / HT.
For example: We have ETH / BTC pair that you use BTC to buy ETH or you use ETH to sell BTC.
Instructions on how to trade on Huobi
Once Bitcoin has successfully loaded into the Huobi Pro wallet, you can use it to buy and sell the coins you want.
Huobi supports over 200 different coins and tokens, depending on the research and needs you choose the appropriate coin to invest!
I will give an example Ethereum (ETH).
On the phone
Step 1: After logging in to your account, select the item “market” lies below
Step 2: Select the item “all” above the interface
Step 3: Select the item ETH / USDT
Step 4: Choose “buy into” or “sold out”
