Why did my order fail?
Your order may fail for several reasons. The most common ones are:
- •Insufficient funds – Make sure your available balance covers the full order amount, including fees.
- •Price restrictions – Some order types (like limit orders) can fail if the price you set is too far from the current market price or outside allowed variance limits (for example, during pre-market or after-hours trading).
- •Market hours – Orders placed outside market hours may only execute once the market opens, or may fail if the stock doesn’t trade in pre- or post-market sessions.
- •Stock trading halt or restriction – Occasionally, trading on a stock may be paused or restricted by the exchange or broker.
