This article provides a detailed explanation of why your order might not be executed. Understanding these common reasons can help you troubleshoot issues and successfully place your orders.

When you are trying to place an order, there are a few things to pay attention to:

Key Points to Consider

Explanation

Trading Session

The instrument may not be available for trading outside of its designated trading hours. To verify an instrument's trading session, use the "Instrument Info" tab on your desktop, web, or mobile trading platforms.

Market, Stop, and Stop Limit orders are only available during the main trading session.

If the "Trading Enabled/Disabled" switch is in the "Disabled" position, you won't be able to create orders, transfer money between subaccounts, and convert currency. Make sure that the switch is in the "Enabled" position.

Exchange Conditions

Different exchanges have their own specific rules, conditions, and restrictions that may impact order execution.

For example, on the Singapore Exchange (SGX), only Limit orders can be created.

ASK / BID Prices

Limit BUY orders are executed at the ASK price or lower.

Limit SELL orders are executed at the BID price or higher.

No Account Selected

Ensure you select the correct subaccount for your trade in the Click-Trade or Order module.

No Direct Market access

The following instruments can only be traded by submitting a request to [email protected]:
