What makes leodex standout from competition ?

Talking about competition leodex has plenty as it is not the only
dex operating on Hive.
Prior to this there was the Hive-engine and along the way came dcity's Beeswap and Tribaldex.io

However what gets leodex a few extra brownie points and makes it a favorite of the users is its intuitive and easy to use interface.

The Deposit and Withdraw buttons are easy to locate and the orange buttons prominently stand out on a black background

At no stage you have go to your wallet to check your leo balance it is displayed right there for you to know your trading limits.

The moment you click the deposit or withdraw
Both the deposit and withdraw fee is clearly stated as 0.25% on the two interfaces.
One also gets to check liquidity so that you are not stuck in an il-liquid trade.

Two types of trades supported

It lets you feel the pulse of the market before you trade

Watching the candle sticks, viewing the market depth and having a look at the volumes before they trade are indispensable tools to many.
To make life of a trader easy leodex offers them all at the click of a button.

Deposit your crypto and keep it there

One may wonder why one would even consider to do something like this?

At all times depositing my crypto and keeping it there saves me a lot of time. So when I have to execute a trade I can do it in a jiffy and I do not miss out on emerging / changing trend.

Leodex being a dex the funds in my account are always under the control of my keys and not at any point getting deposited to a CEX or a centralized account.

The ads are minimal

So they do not distract one while carrying out trades.also a part of the fee is getting burnt(my understanding it is the fee you pay while depositing the tokens) in addition to the ad revenue that gets generated. This way I am doing my bit to boost the leo economy and so the more deposits I make and the longer I use the platform more ad revenue gets generated to burn more tokens thus supporting the leo token price.

Rich list is very useful

Under the https://leodex.io/wallet section against each token name the last orange button gives you access to the rich list.

for example looking at the leo rich list for leo

This gives a see of information as to who has how much holding, staked amount , looking at the content they create , curate , vote and support gives invaluable insights as to the direction in which the platform is going.
This feature is functional not just for leo token and leofinance.io but for the entire list of tokens that are there so one may know what are the best tokens to invest.

Maximizing the use of wallet is easy

There are 7 things you can do from withing your wallet here.

While you are at the wallet spare a thought as to what you want to do with the tokens
from here you can
1 send
2 Access token market
3 Stake
4 Unstake
5 Delegate tokens
6 View the token history
7 Access the rich list

Putting your idle tokes to staking or delegating to earn a passive income is worth considering while you are here.

Pro tip:
Delegating to the hodl community and the @leo.voter account your hive power is a good way to earn passive crypto income.

Leodex makes trend spotting easy

Trading is neither easy nor every ones cup of tea. That being said if one knows what tokens are experience a breakout in terms of volume or price it can be in valuable info.
right from the dashboard you can sort the trading pairs by volume or price action. you can make this selection by clicking the respective buttons as shown below.

Claim all the token rewards from under the rewards section

This is another of my favorite section.

Clicking on the tick mark button next to a token one can claim any unclaimed rewards.

Set a vote multiplier

This is a very useful tool which is not known to many

By clicking this button a menu pops up

This is a useful tool for those who have staked their tokens and if you have a sizable stake you can control how much of a vote you want to give out.
This can be adjusted for each token you have and have staked it.

You current vote weight multiplier is 1.

You may usually want a multiplier > 1. For instance, if only 1/3 of posts you vote is using LEO, you may want to set the multiplier to 3.
