You then need to select the asset you wish to trade from the available categories or by using the search bar. Once you have studied the chart and you are ready to place your trade just select BUY or SELL. The order window on the right side of the page should show your selected asset and whether you are buying or selling. Assuming that you wish to place a trade on the EUR/USD pair, your position size will appear under “Amount” in euro. You can adjust your position size either by clicking directly on the amount field or by using the “+” and “-” tools.

Once you have determined the size of your position, you can also choose to determine at which maximum profit or loss your position will automatically be closed by ticking and modifying the Take Profit and Stop Loss tabs.

Once you have adjusted your position, simply click “Place Trade” to open it. A confirmation will appear and you can then click on the positions icon to view your OPEN and CLOSED positions.

If the price moves in the direction you anticipated, you will make a profit

If the price moves in the opposite direction, you will incur a loss.

You can keep your position open for as long as you wish, provided that you have enough available balance. Keep in mind that profits and Losses are realised only when the position is closed.
