Common Trading Problems

Stop-loss not hit
Your stop-loss was not hit by the market yet. Please note that if your position is long (buy), the stop-loss order will be executed only when the bid hits your stop-loss price. If your position was short (sell), the stop-loss order will be executed only when the offer (ask) price hits your stop-loss price

Target not hit
Your target was not hit by the market yet. Please note that if your position is long (buy), the target will be executed only when the bid hits your target price. If your position was short (sell), the target order will be executed only when the offer (ask) price hits your target price

Closed position - Margin call
Your position will be closed if you get a margin call. If the equity balance on your margin trading desk falls below the margin requirement, a margin call will be generated. In the event that a margin trading desk exceeds its maximum allowable leverage, some or all open positions will be liquidated immediately.
