 Hey what's going on guys, it's Mark and I'm back with another tutorial, like eToro guide for beginners like if you're just getting started out. So today I'm going to go over what a pending closes. Any story because that can be quite confusing. Why have I just tried to close my trade and now it's gone into pending and I'm just going to go into kind of all the questions you might potentially have about that. If there's anything that I miss out then feel free to drop me a comment and I'll always get back to you on Instagram, eToro, YouTube. I'll be accessible on all of those. So let's start off with so this is my eToro portfolio right now. I don't have anything that I want to close. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to quickly jump across into my virtual but everything is exactly the same. So it's literally just that it's virtual and not not real so nothing to worry about there. So basically what a pending close on eToro is, it basically means that you've closed your trade but the market for that asset that you're trying to close isn't open right now so it's not able to execute on the trade or make the close happen hence the reason it's a pending close right. So for example Apple is part of, if you go on here you can see it's part of the NASDAQ and then what I'll do is I'll leave a link in the description so it's an eToro page and it shows you the opening times for all the markets so it'll be the forex markets, the cryptocurrency which is 24.7 so you shouldn't have any pending closes there and just all the different indexes that these funds will be part of but I'll show you for example say so basically you go on here you go to close your trade just a quick insurjection from the editing version of me if you don't know how to close trades open trades what buy or a sell position is click the tab in the top right there should be a little pop-up now and that goes into detail about that. Cool. You can see that the market is closed here on the page anyway it will say market closed but we'll go back on the trade real quick go to close your trade and then you can see here no your close order will be executed once the market opens so there's a few warnings that this isn't going to execute straight away and then go ahead and click close trade and then you can see it goes into pending close so for the UK this for Apple in particular the NASDAQ opens at 2 30 pm so as soon as it hits 2 30 pm right now it's like 1 am but as soon as it hits 2 30 pm today this will close and then obviously I'll have the money in my available balance or whatever I want to do with it so that will close at 2 30 and yeah and likewise as I say for whatever the market is is when it will close. Another quick note from me which is quite important when the market opens it will sell or it will close your trade at the opening price so it might not necessarily be the price that you're seeing on the screen. So if Apple falls 10% between the time you close the trade and the opening time of the market it will close your trade at 10% lower than what you're seeing so that's just something to pay attention to and I'll go a little bit into detail about that later on. It's the same for copy trader as well so if you're copying someone and you want to get rid of if you want to stop copying their entire portfolio or parts of it or whatever it might be if you stop copying them you'll probably have a bunch of pending closes which will basically be exactly the same thing once those markets open your close will be executed your close all will happen and then you'll have your available funds again so it's just a case of checking when the markets are open and when that will happen obviously if the market's open then it won't go into pending. So let's say you've done this by accident so you've gone into you've gone to close the trade you don't want to close the trade or you've changed your mind or you've looked at the pre-market and you see that it's going to open and Apple's had some awful news and it's going to be 10% down and you actually just want to hold on to it for the long term you can always come back on to it obviously providing that the market hasn't opened yet and cancel it right so you see this cancel button here and even if we come off of it so if we go on portfolio and refresh it have a look around and then you come back and then go back on to the trade and it's going to be there pending close and then you just go ahead and cancel it and then just goes back to just telling you the details about when you bought it and that sort of stuff but yeah it says using that closed trade wash cancel so that's it really that's everything to do with pending closes if there was any confusion and I think that's everything so it's copy traded covered what pending close is how to cancel a pending close and if you want to know the opening times for all the markets I'll leave a link for that because there's a whole bunch of stuff for in like one of the e-tour FAQs with that being said just a general rule of thumb US markets usually 230 for the UK so if you want to change the time if you want to use a time convert and it's easy if you generally it's 230 the European markets I think it's 9am although I don't get involved with them too much a forex trades from Sunday evening to Friday night I think so Friday 10 and then opens at Sunday 11 p.m. cryptos 24 7 and I think that's everything for now but I hope this was helpful if it was give it a thumbs up share on e-tour I'll probably drop a Sunday tour and tag a bunch of like the beginner markets on this usually for some crypto stuff if you want to copy me by all means go for that or if you just get any questions or want to chat or you know make some friends and message me as well so thanks for watching and I will catch you guys in the next one please out
