How to Place a Trade

Order Confirmation


Open an account

With

TD Waterhouse,
you receive prompt confirmation so that you always know your order has been placed in accordance with you instructions.

Immediate Confirmation

TD Waterhouse's
advanced order-entry system lets you know instantly that your order is confirmed as received or confirmed as executed. Your order is transmitted directly to the appropriate market (or other applicable source). Equities and options trades will normally reach the exchange within a few seconds. Most equity and option market orders and bond orders can be confirmed while you are still on the phone, or online.

Written Confirmation

To help you keep a convenient log of your trades and to enable you to verify that your instructions have been carried out accurately,

TD Waterhouse
will send you a printed trade confirmation immediately following trade execution (i.e. the next business day for equities, options and bonds). Please review this confirmation carefully and call us immediately if it does not agree with your records.

eServices

This online service, called eServices, allows

TD Waterhouse
clients to view certain account documents online through
TD Waterhouse
WebBroker. Clients are notified by e-mail as soon as their trade confirmation or account statement is ready for viewing. Trade confirmations are available online the day after the trade has been processed. Monthly brokerage statements are available the first or second business day of each month.

Call Backs

If you would like us to call you back with a report of your executed order, please let us know when you place the order. Call backs will be made on a "best-effort" basis.
