• 5.4 The Client has the right to close a position fully or partially by specifying the volume accordingly.

6. Pending Orders

• 6.1 A pending order is a client request to open or close a position when the price reaches a specified level. The Ask price activates the order for a buy, and the Bid price for a sell.
• 6.2 There are six types of pending orders: Buy Limit (limit order for a buy), Sell Limit (limit order for a sell), Buy Stop (stop order for a buy), Sell Stop (stop order for a sell), Stop Loss, and Take Profit.
• 6.3 A Buy Limit (limit order for a buy) is an order to buy at a price lower than the current market price. The result of the activation of a Buy Limit order may be the opening of a new buy position at the specified price or better (positive slippage). If there is not enough liquidity, the limit order may be only partially executed or may not be executed at all (in this case the order remains in the market). If the order is partially executed, a limit order for the remaining volume with the same parameters will be put forth to the market.
• 6.4 Sell Limit (limit order for a sell) is an order to sell at a price higher than the current market price. The result of the activation of a Sell Limit order may be the opening of a new sell position at the specified price or better (positive slippage). If there is not enough liquidity, the limit order may be only partially executed or may not be executed at all (in this case the order remains in the market). If the order is partially executed, a limit order for the remaining volume with the same parameters will be put forth to the market.
• 6.5 Buy Stop (stop order for a buy) is an order to buy at a price higher than the current market price. When the price reaches the Buy Stop level, a market order is put forth to buy the specified volume. The result of the activation of a Buy Stop order may be the opening of a new buy position. The execution price may differ either positively or negatively from the price indicated in the order. The result of execution will depend on the market situation and current liquidity.
• 6.6 A Sell Stop (stop order for a sell) is an order to sell at a price lower than the current market price. When the price reaches the Sell Stop level, a market order is put forth to sell the specified volume. The result of the activation of a Sell Stop order may be the opening of a new sell position. The execution price may differ either positively or negatively from the price indicated in the order. The result of execution will depend on the market situation and current liquidity.
• 6.7 A Stop Loss order is used for the aim of closing an open position. This order closes a buy position at a price lower than the market price, or closes a sell position at a price higher than the market price. The rules of execution for Stop Loss orders are analogous to those for Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders.
• 6.8 A Take Profit order is used for the aim of closing an open position. This order closes a buy position at a price higher than the market price, or closes a sell position at a price lower than the market price. The rules of execution for Take Profit orders are analogous to those for Buy Limit and Sell Limit orders.
• 6.9 Stop Loss and Take Profit orders have the status GTC (Good Till Cancelled), whereas Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Buy Stop, and Sell Stop orders can have GTC status or GT (Good Till) status, which means that the Client can set how long the order is valid for.
• 6.10 Execution of a pending Stop order takes few stages described in the current paragraph.
  • 6.10.1 The price activates a Stop order for Buy, Sell or closing of a position.
  • 6.10.2 The server checks for the required free margin availability and sends the order to the provider with the best price at the moment for execution. Free margin calculation is performed at the moment of execution and not at the moment of activation of the order and may differ from what is supposed by the Client and the Client needs to take it into consideration when planning the trading. While the order is being executed by the provider, the server blocks it and it cannot be cancelled.
  • 6.10.3 After receiving a respond from the provider, the server unblocks the order and confirms execution at the price received from the provider in the execution report. Real execution price may differ from the price in the order.
• 6.11 Execution of a pending Limit order takes few stages described in the current paragraph.
  • 6.11.1 The price activates a Limit order for Buy, Sell or closing of a position.
  • 6.11.2 The server checks for the required free margin availability and sends the limit order to the provider with the best price at the moment for execution. Free margin calculation is performed at the moment of execution and not at the moment of activation of the order and may differ from what is supposed by the Client and the Client needs to take it into consideration when planning the trading. While the order is being executed by the provider, the server blocks it and it cannot be cancelled.
  • 6.11.3 After receiving a respond from the provider, the server unblocks the order and confirms execution at the price received from the provider in the execution report. Real execution price may differ from the price in the order for the better only.
  • 6.11.4 In case of a partial execution, the Client receives the partial execution confirmation and an order with the same parameters is set again for the unexecuted part.
• 6.12 In order to automate the placement of Stop Loss orders with the aim of maximizing profit, MetaTrader offers the possibility of placing Trailing Stop orders. A Trailing Stop works only when the Client’s terminal has been launched. The result of the activation of a trailing stop is the submission of a request to modify the Stop Loss level, which essentially is no different from orders sent by the client. The Client should take into account the fact that the Trailing Stop function does not guarantee the placement of the stop exactly according to the tick history.

7. Margin

• 7.1 The Client is obligated to support the margin level at no lower than 100%, taking into account floating leverage levels listed on the website on Margin requirements page.
• 7.2 The Company has the right to reject any order to open a position if there is not enough free margin on the Trading Account.
• 7.3 The Company has the right, but is not obligated, to close any position if the margin level on the Trading Account has gone below 60%. As a rule, though not always, the most loss-making position is closed first.
• 7.4 The Company has the right to reduce the leverage offered to any client with prior notice. The Company also has the right to suspend the client’s trading if the Company is unable to contact the client using all available methods.

8. Manifest Error

• 8.1 A manifest error is the carrying out of the Client’s trading operations at an erroneous price. The reasons for such errors can be the following: human factor, technical malfunction, other reasons.
• 8.2 The Company has the right to cancel or adjust any of the Client’s trading operations if there are grounds to believe that a manifest error was committed while carrying out these operations.

9. Force Majeure

• 9.1 Force majeure circumstances are considered to be such unforeseen events as natural disasters, war, sabotage, global technical malfunctions, as well as a complete lack of liquidity in the market.
• 9.2 In the event of the occurrence of one or more of the above-listed events and its designation by the Company as a force majeure circumstance, the Company ceases being bound to the obligations of this agreement and will not be liable for any consequences of such an event.

10. Negative Balance

• 10.1 If a negative balance arises on the Trading Account, the debt must be liquidated by the Client within 10 days using any of the available deposit methods. The failure to fulfill this requirement may lead to legal action. The Company establishes the trading terms (size of leverage, stop out level) in such a fashion as to reduce the possibility to a minimum of the balance of the Trading Account becoming negative. The Client, in turn, is obligated to maintain the margin level on the account at a level no lower than 100%.
• 10.2 If the Client chooses leverage of 1:10 or less, the Company guarantees that a stop out of the client’s positions will not lead to a negative balance. The client must not have any open positions when changing the leverage.

11. Procedure for Filing a Claim

• 11.4 The log-file of the Company’s server shall be the main source of information for the review of the claim.
