Order Execution*

  • First In First Out (FIFO)
    Open positions are closed according to the FIFO accounting rule. All positions opened within a particular currency pair are liquidated in the order in which they were originally opened.

  • Stop Loss Orders
    As a rule, sell stops are filled on our bid and buy stops are filled on our offer. This is an important point for traders who are accustomed to being filled on sell stops when the offer reaches the requested order rate. For example, if a stop order is placed to sell USD/CHF at 1.45491, , the trader will be filled when the bid reaches 1.45491, . In the rare instance the market gaps over a requested rate, a stop order is filled at the best available price.

  • Limit Orders
    Sell limit orders are filled when the bid reaches the requested rate; limit orders to buy are filled on the offer. For example, a limit order to buy EUR/USD at 1.04561, will be filled when FOREX.com's offer hits 1.04561, .

  • Good Til Cancelled (GTC) Orders
    All GTC orders remain open until they are triggered or cancelled. If you close out a position manually, you must cancel any order(s) relating to that position.

  • Orders left over the weekend or holidays
    Orders left pending at close of trading on Friday at 5:00pm NY Time or placed over the weekend are subject to a gap open on Sunday evening when FOREX.com starts trading at 5:00pm NY Time. For both stop loss and limit orders - if your order is triggered due to news, events or other fundamental factors, it will not be executed over the weekend. Your order WILL be executed at the prevailing price when FOREX.com's trading desk opens Sunday. Because of the additional gap risk involved, you may want to reconsider leaving open orders over the weekend or holidays.

* Placing contingent orders may not necessarily limit your losses.
