# Placing an Order
### To create a Market Order
* In the Home section, click on the instrument you wish to trade from the watchlist.
* A pop-up with two options, "Trade" and "Chart," will appear.
* Select the "Trade" option to proceed to the New Order modal. Here, you will need to specify your preferences, including the **Side**, **Order Type**, **Quantity**, and **Time in Force**. Once all options are configured, click the **Buy** or **Sell** button at the bottom to execute the order.
* If you wish to view the chart first, click on the "Chart" option in the Home section. This will take you to the chart of the selected instrument.
* From the chart screen, you can click the **Buy** or **Sell** buttons located at the bottom, which will direct you to the same New Order modal.
* After execution, your active trade will be visible in the **Trade** section under **Positions** tab**.**
### To create a Pending Order
* In the **Order** modal, choose the appropriate order type: **Limit**, **Stop**, or **Stop Limit**. Then, specify the **Side**, **Quantity**, and **Time in Force** based on your preferences. Finally, click the Buy/Sell button at the bottom to submit your order.
* Once your order is placed, it will appear in the **Trade** section under the **Orders** tab, pending activation. The order will be triggered when the market price reaches the specified price level you set and move to **Positions** tab.
