How do I close a position or cancel an order?

Trade › Positions and Open Orders tabs under the chart

The Positions tab under the chart lists every open position with a close action that sends a market order for the full size; a partial close goes through the ticket with Short or Sell for the amount you want out. The Open Orders tab lists waiting orders with a cancel action. Trigger orders placed on the venue itself are shown but edited there.

Step by step

1. PositionsEach row shows size, entry, mark, unrealised profit and loss and the exits. Close sends a market order for everything.
2. Open OrdersLimit, stop and trailing orders waiting to fill. Cancel removes one; the order line on the chart disappears with it.
3. Partial closeEnter the amount in the ticket on the opposite side. The ticket says it reduces the position.

Good to know

• A bot’s own orders are listed too; stop the bot before cancelling its orders by hand, or it will place them again.
