Buy and sell instructions

A buy or sell instruction is created when a trade is placed outside of market hours* or during an intra-day auction. Your instruction will be converted into a trade when the market opens on the next trading day or once the intra-day auction has ended.


While you have pending buy instructions, the purchase value of those instructions will be held by us in order to make the purchase when the market is open and will not, therefore, be available as free cash. If you want to access the cash, you will need to cancel the buy instructions.

 

PLEASE NOTE:
