How do I start making trades?

To make a trade, begin my searching a specific stock.

Below the stock graph on the right side, you will see a box that states "Place a trade order." Once you see this,

  1. Select whether you want to "buy" or "sell" the stock of the company you've chosen

  2. Choose between three trading options: Market, Limit, or Stop

  3. Type in the number of shares you'd like to purchase in the "Quantity of Stock" field

  4. Provide a brief explanation as to why you placed a trade in the "Explain your trade" field

  5. To place the trade, click the "Place Order" blue button

*NOTE: An error message will occur if you have insufficient funds to purchase a stock or are trying to sell more stocks than you currently hold.
