Monero balance on localmonero

Hi,
I just completed my first trade. Its been a few hours but my wallet balance on localmonero sgill shows as $0. Does it usually take a while? thanks

Your purchased coins go to the settlement wallet address you’ve provided, not to your LocalMonero wallet. Check the wallet you used for settlement when opening the trade.

This new way is stupid and onky lost new buyers.
Moreover they can NOT use the internal wallet and I have some buyers who lost coins with outside temporary address and complain that they can not use the internal wallet.

new user here i purchased some xmr and see it in my wallet. but the balance in the upper right corner on the locamonero page shows as 0.0. what is that balance?

It is the internal wallet, only used for sellers or ad makers. Sellers must store the XMR they want to sell in that internal wallet, so that the crypto can be locked during a trade, to prevent the seller from scamming.
