If you are on the research page of a specific symbol and click on the trade button it will populate the trade ticket with that symbol.
As your navigate the app there is swipe functionality built in to allow you to swipe and then click on a trade icon to pull up the ticket for that symbol. This can be found on your positions section, orders section and also the watchlist.
