Two ways to open a position in Match-Trader — one for speed, one for control.
Two ways in: the Quick Trade panel for instant one-click execution, or New Order when you want stops, targets or a pending entry.
Where to find them
Both live in the instruments panel on the left. The SELL and BUY buttons with the volume control between them are Quick Trade; the + New Order button beside the instrument name opens the full order ticket.
Quick Trade (red/green) and the + New Order button, in the instruments panel.

New Order (advanced)
Click + New Order next to your chosen instrument to open the full ticket, where you can set stops, targets and pending entries.
