Open Positions for Example 1: |
Options |

|---|---|---|
|
1. BUY 150,000 EUR/USD |
• You may close positions 1, 2, or 4 using the close functionality on that specific position • You will be unable to close position 3 before position 1 because it is not the oldest of that quantity Please note, any order that triggers a position closure, not using the close functionality, will be done on a FIFO basis. |

|
2. BUY 100,000 EUR/USD |

|
