# Trade execution

> Execute trades through Robinhood directly from your Sourcetable spreadsheet.

Sourcetable integrates with Robinhood to let you execute trades directly from your spreadsheet. Analyze a stock, make a decision, and place the trade — all in one place.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Trading involves risk of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always do your own research before making investment decisions.

## Supported assets

* **Stocks** — buy and sell equities
* **Crypto** — trade cryptocurrencies
* **Fractional shares** — buy partial shares of expensive stocks

## Paper trading

Test your strategies without risking real money using paper trading mode. Paper trades simulate real market conditions but don't execute actual transactions.

## Placing a trade

Ask the AI:

* "Buy 10 shares of AAPL at market price"
* "Sell 5 shares of TSLA"
* "Buy \$500 worth of Bitcoin"
* "Place a limit order for 100 shares of MSFT at \$400"

## Connecting Robinhood

**1. Add credentials**

In the AI chat, provide your Robinhood credentials when prompted. These are encrypted and stored securely.

**2. Verify**

Complete any required two-factor authentication.

**3. Start trading**

Ask the AI to execute trades or check your positions.

## Research tools

The Robinhood integration also provides research capabilities:

* View current positions and portfolio value
* Check real-time stock prices and quotes
* Review order history
* Analyze portfolio performance

## Workflow example

A typical analysis-to-execution workflow:

1. Run fundamental analysis on a stock
2. Check technical indicators for entry timing
3. Assess portfolio risk impact of adding the position
4. Execute the trade through Robinhood
5. Monitor the position with automated reporting
