Hi all. Is there any documentation of instructions for creating orders? I’ve created a few that aren’t filling and I can’t figure out why. The price seems close enough the the market. I’m also not sure what security deposit to set. Any help much appreciated.

Hi @smpl  
Bisq has an alternative network used for tests.  
You can play on this sandbox network by switching Bisq to the BTC\_DAO\_REGTEST mode (Settings/Preferences).  
You can also simply type `Bisq --baseCurrencyNetwork=BTC_DAO_REGTEST` in your CLI.  
This needs you to have some testBTC (and testBSQ if you want).  
You may just ask for them in the #dao channel on the slack.

Then you can make offers, take some, etc.  
(You probably can even make some ping-pong with yourself).

Maybe there aren’t many users trading that pair at the moment.  
It would be good to advertise Bisq in your community if that is the case.

I’d hoped ETH/BTC would be more popular. Happy to advertise if I believe in the product.

I’d imagine whoever is trading BTC/ETH as other alternatives. Isn’t there a lot of Ethereum DEXes?
