What are my options for closing positions?
|
Effective September 13, 2019, on FOREX.com’s platforms you have the flexibility to close positions in the order you choose as long as the quantity of each position varies. Examples:
| 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 |
| 3. BUY 150,000 EUR/USD |
| 4. BUY 175,000 EUR/USD |
| Open Positions for Example 2: |
Options |
1. BUY 100,000 EUR/USD |
