[Resolved]  Olymp Trade — My trades automatically close

I traded on a demo account for some time and recently decided to see how it would work out with real money. I deposited $100 and already lost some of it. The problem is that my trades automatically close after a certain time. When I was trading on a demo account I could keep my trades open the whole day, even I could leave them open till the next day. Once my trades are in profit I would close them.
But with a real account, my trades automatically close and I check everything… I can only choose the time when they should close. Is this how it is supposed to work, or am I doing something wrong?

I just realized what I was doing wrong. I was choosing instruments in FTT mode instead of Forex mode. I was not even aware that different trading modes are included on one account. So, be careful when opening the charts of your instruments. This is when you need to make sure your charts are in fixed-time trading mode or in forex mode.

Hi Navin,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience with us. The difference you're noticing is due to the type of trading you're engaging in. In our Fixed Time Trades (FTT) mode, trades are designed to automatically close at the end of a specified time period, which you can set before you place the trade. This is why your trades are closing automatically at the selected time.

On a demo account, it’s possible that you were trading in a different mode that allows positions to stay open longer, like Forex mode. If you prefer to keep trades open until you're ready to close them, you might want to try trading in Forex mode on your real account, where you have more control over when to close your trades.

We hope this clarifies things! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Happy trading! 🚀
Best regards, Olymp Trade team.
