Use this widget to place new orders.
The widget has two states:
In this state, you can quickly place IOC Market and GTC Limit orders by selecting the order side (Buy/Sell) and type (Market/Limit), and specifying the order size (in lots) and price (for Limit orders).
You can also place orders on CFD markets with the maximum leverage automatically applied.
In this state, you get access to more precise order settings, such as:
Stop orders
Time in force
Leverage
Take profit, Stop loss, Trailing stop See details in Order types.
Complete order information
The market on which the order will be placed is displayed in the widget header. To change the market, use the Instrument select in the topbar or select it in the Favorite markets widget.
To place an order, fill in the parameters, review order details and preliminary calculated values, and then confirm the order by clicking the Place button.
If using Take profit, Stop loss, Trailing stop, set the prices in consideration of the current highest market bid/ask or a specified Limit price:

These values can be adjusted any time until the position is fully closed via the Open positions widget.
Keep in mind that you can't place orders during non-trading hours, according to the trading calendar schedule.
Keep in mind that you will not be able to place an order if the execution of the order causes your margin level to fall below the Margin call level. The same conditions apply to withdrawal operations.
