OBJECTIVE

In this video, I walk you through the trading execution buttons on both desktop and mobile platforms, focusing on the buy and sell buttons located in the top left-hand corner. I explain how clicking the blue buy button enters a long position, indicating a bullish bias, while the red sell button enters a short position, reflecting a bearish outlook. I also emphasize the importance of checking your settings to ensure these buttons are visible before executing trades. If you haven't done so already, please refer to the previous training for guidance on adjusting your settings. Let's get comfortable with these tools to enhance our trading experience!
