# What is Yellow\.pro?

**Yellow\.pro** is a hybrid crypto trading platform that pairs the speed of a centralized exchange with the self-custody and transparency of DeFi. You get fast, professional-grade order execution without handing over full control of your assets.

## Flexible Access

Access the platform with a **Web3 wallet** (MetaMask, Rabby, Phantom, WalletConnect) for full self-custody, or **sign in with Google** for an instant start through your Yellow Wallet. Either path gives you the same trading features and a clean, beginner-friendly interface.

For how the two sign-in methods differ, see [External Wallet vs Google Account](/getting-started/wallet-vs-gmail.md). For the full connect → fund → trade → withdraw flow, see the [Users Journey](/getting-started/users-journey.md).

## What You Can Trade

* **Spot Trading** — Buy and sell supported crypto assets at live market prices using market or limit orders.
* **Perpetual Futures** — Trade with leverage on supported markets, go long or short, and manage positions with real-time P\&L, margin, and liquidation tracking.

## Why Traders Choose Yellow\.pro

* **Fast Execution** — Low-latency matching built for active and high-frequency trading.
* **You Stay in Control** — Non-custodial wallet support means your funds remain yours.
* **Pro Tools, Simple UX** — Advanced order types and position management without unnecessary complexity.
* **Growing Market Coverage** — New Spot and Perpetual markets are added over time.
