Placing Your First Order
How to buy or sell securities through the app or an AI assistant.
Two Ways to Trade
1. Through the Mobile App or Web Portal
- Log in at portal.lighthorse.io or open the mobile app
- Search for the stock or ETF you want to trade
- Tap Buy or Sell
- Select your order type (market or limit), quantity, and duration
- Review the order preview, then confirm
2. Through an AI Assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini)
Just tell your connected AI what you want to do in plain language:

- "Place a limit order for 5 shares of TSLA at $200"
- "Sell half my NVDA position"
The AI will confirm the order details with you before executing.
