Can I close a trade early?

Updated

Yes, on most trades. You can close a trade before expiry for a partial payout. The platform shows you the amount first, and you decide whether to take it.

When you can close early

  • HIGH/LOW: trades of 3 minutes or longer.
  • SPREAD: trades of 15 minutes or longer.
  • TOUCH: TOUCH trades can't be closed early.

You can close early until 2 minutes before expiry. After that, the trade runs to expiry.

How to close early

  1. Open the OPEN TRADES tab below the chart. Each open trade shows the amount you'd receive if you closed it now. This amount changes as the price moves.
  2. Tap CLOSE on the trade. The Sell Trade Early Payout panel shows the amount you'll receive.
  3. Tap CLOSE TRADE to close the trade and receive that amount. To keep the trade open, tap ×.

The amount is added to your balance as soon as the trade closes.
