When you click the Place New Order icon on the Control Center, the Order Entry Screen pops up. It's simple to use. All you have to do is enter four pieces of information: the symbols and the quantities of the securities that you want to buy and sell. In this example your order is to buy 5000 CSCO and sell 5000 INTC, but the buy and sell quantities don't have to be equal.

In a moment, if you want, you can specify market or limit status, or you can attach a limit price to your order, but you don't have to do any of that to trade barter orders. As you'll see in a moment, we give you more power over your barter order than you ever had over the old kind of order.
