There is no option that you can change it to USD or USDT they have no option the same as in Binance.

Why not manually put the BTC you can see the total amount below percentage including the volume and the total amount?

Or you can transfer all your funds to the main account and then only put the amount you want in the trading account then use the 100% to put all your USDT funds from your trading account(The amount of USDT that you want to use to buy BTC)?

Why not manually...?

Because it's much more easier (and efficient) to do it the OP way

You can't on limit trades, but you can on stop market trades. Because trading liquidity on Kucoin is also quite high in my opinion, placing an order on a stop market will not have a significant price difference from the target price you set compared to a regular limit order.

I think OP isn't talking about limit price or market price. It's about how much USDT he want to place to buy Bitcoin. On the Binance he can decide how much USDT wants to book. Because the total showing in Binance in USDT. So whether you can book order by calculating BTC or you can book an order by calculating USDT. Then Binance will calculate automatically opposite. That's what OP asking I am guessing.

Simply KuCoin does not have this feature. So you can't do it. You have to calculate manually or any other way.

Yep I know that, of course Bitmaxz's advice is better than mine, I'm just suggesting an alternative way to place the order amount in USDT. And what I do know, placing such an order does not guarantee it will be 100% filled, especially if the quantity in the pairing will result in dust fractions. A small percentage of them will be canceled by the system, or else the fractions will not be traded.

That's why, there is some dust amount of token left over from your trading portfolio.
