        Parameters
        ----------
        asset : Asset
            The asset that this order is for.
        amount : int
            The amount of shares to order. If ``amount`` is positive, this is
            the number of shares to buy or cover. If ``amount`` is negative,
            this is the number of shares to sell or short.
        limit_price : float, optional
            The limit price for the order.
        stop_price : float, optional
            The stop price for the order.
        style : ExecutionStyle, optional
            The execution style for the order.

        Returns
        -------
        order_id : str or None
            The unique identifier for this order, or None if no order was
            placed.

        Notes
        -----
        The ``limit_price`` and ``stop_price`` arguments provide shorthands for
        passing common execution styles. Passing ``limit_price=N`` is
        equivalent to ``style=LimitOrder(N)``. Similarly, passing
        ``stop_price=M`` is equivalent to ``style=StopOrder(M)``, and passing
        ``limit_price=N`` and ``stop_price=M`` is equivalent to
        ``style=StopLimitOrder(N, M)``. It is an error to pass both a ``style``
        and ``limit_price`` or ``stop_price``.
