How to Buy Stocks
Once your portfolio is funded, you can start a buy order in two ways.
Start from the Home Screen

Search for the Stock
Search by company name or ticker symbol, then confirm that you have selected the correct stock.
Choose the Order Type
Select one of the following:
Limit Price
You set the highest price you are willing to pay. The order will only be executed at that price or lower, giving you greater control over the execution price.
Market Order
The order is submitted at the best available price in the market. It is usually executed more quickly, but the final execution price may differ from the price shown when the order was submitted.

Enter the number of shares you want to buy.
Price
If you select a limit order, enter your preferred purchase price.
Choose the Order Validity
Order validity determines how long the order remains active and how it should be handled if it cannot be fully executed.
Day
The order remains active until the end of the current trading session. Any unexecuted quantity expires at the end of the day.
Fill or Kill
The entire order must be executed immediately. If the full quantity is unavailable, the whole order is cancelled.
Fill and Kill
Any available quantity is executed immediately, while the remaining quantity is cancelled.
Good Till Date
The order remains active until the date you select, unless it is executed or cancelled earlier.
Choose the Order Setup
The app also gives you different ways to structure the order:

Places the order using the standard details and conditions you entered.
Link
Links the main order to related orders, such as an exit or protection order.
Conditional
The order is only submitted after a condition you set has been met.
