If you want to speculate that the price of a stock will rise, you can place a BUY trade order on the TD365.com platform. If you are correct and the price of that stock goes up, you should make a profit on that trade. If the price of the stock went down, however, then you would make a loss.
Let us go through an example trading the US Stock Amazon:
