You can invest all your funds deposited to the allocation or a part of it.

You will be able to use this trading allocation for investing in ETFs, Equities, Mutual funds and for opening trades in Trading module.

In case you invest a part of your funds in the trading allocation, then the remaining balance of the investment account can be used for investing in Strategies, SMA, Thematic baskets and through Robo Advisory module.
