How do I place a pending order?

Pending orders allow you to set a price at which you want to enter the market in the future. The order will only execute when the market reaches your specified price.

Steps to place a pending order:

1. Click on the instrument from the watchlist.
2. In the right panel select Regular form.
3. Click Pending tab.
4. Choose your order type, Limit or Stop.
5. Set the Open Price (the price at which you want the order to trigger)
6. Set Volume, Take Profit, and Stop Loss.
7. Click the Confirm button to place the order.

The four pending order types:

Order Type	When it triggers	Use case
Buy Limit	When price drops to your level	Buy at a lower price than current market
Sell Limit	When price rises to your level	Sell at a higher price than current market
Buy Stop	When price rises above your level	Buy on breakout upward
Sell Stop	When price drops below your level	Sell on breakout downward

Tip: Buy Limit must be set below the current market price. Sell Limit must be set above. Buy Stop must be above. Sell Stop must be below. The terminal will show you the pip distance from mid-price as you set your level.

After placing a pending order:

• It appears in the Pending tab at the bottom of the terminal.
• A horizontal line appears on the chart showing your pending order level.
• A confirmation notification appears: "Pending order placed"
• When triggered, it moves to the Open tab automatically.
