Multiple exchanges will be listed however please note investors will only be able to submit an order for exchanges they have trading permissions configured for. Once a ticker symbol has been selected, the middle of the page will display a chart, along with the bid and ask. Additional data values will be shown below the chart, including Volume Today, Average Daily Volume, Open Price, Market Cap and more. Investors can adjust the time period of the chart by selecting from the list along the X axis of the chart. To the right of the chart, the investor can see details of their account balances, such as Net Liquidity, Unrealized P&L, cash balances, and margin requirements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selecting the Back button above the chart will remove the existing ticker symbol from the order ticket and display any recently searched tickers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To submit an order through the Order Ticket, the investor will select Buy Order or Sell Order, enter the quantity (which can be entered in shares or dollars, if fractional shares are enabled), the order type, price, time in force, and indicate if they would like the order to fill Outside Regular Trading Hours. When the investor is ready to submit the order, they can select the Preview button to view a projection of their account balances post trade, or the blue Submit Order button to transmit the order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the investor has an existing position they would like to close, they can easily do so from the Portfolio window. The investor selects Portfolio along the top of the page and then locates the position they would like to close from the list of current holdings. In this example, the investor is looking to close out of their AT&T position so they select the ticker symbol, T. To the right of the symbol it will show \u201cPosition\u201d. The investor selects the three dots icon at the far-right hand side of the row and from the menu selects Close. An Order Ticket will appear populated with the order to close out of the existing position. In this example, the order ticket is populated as a Sell Order with a quantity of five as the investor was long five shares of AT&T. The investor can fill in any order type, price and time-in-force details and, when ready, selects Submit to transmit the order. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In a later lesson, we will review the Client Portal options trading capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Investors can see a list of recent orders and executed trades from the Trade menu by selecting Orders & Trades.

The middle of the page will display the investor\u2019s current cash balances. To convert a currency balance, the investor can use the \u201cFrom\u201d dropdown menu to select the currency they have and would like to convert.
