Orders for Bonds and CDs are available on the Firstrade Website. At this time, Fixed Income trading is not available on the Mobile App.
After login, click Trading tab, then Fixed Income. On the next screen, place your mouse over the ‘Buy/Search’ button and select the type of security from the dropdown menu. Complete the search criteria to narrow the results. Select ‘Preview’ to ensure the purchase is acceptable before submitting the order.
