Pending orders around news/weekend: what you must cancel vs can keep
TL;DR
Pending orders are “hands-free trades.” If a pending triggers inside a restricted window (news/weekend), it can count as a violation. When in doubt: close + cancel.
How it works
- A pending order can become a market order without you doing anything.
- In PropXP’s restricted windows (e.g., Funded/Instant Funding without News Add-On), “executing a trade” includes pending triggers.
Common gotchas
- “But I placed the pending earlier” doesn’t matter if it triggers during the window.
- SL/TP can “execute” you too: if you’re not allowed to trade the window, don’t leave landmines.
- If you must be flat for weekend rules: close positions + cancel pendings (both).
- Crypto note: crypto market doesn’t close, you can trade and hold on weekend freely.
Values table
| Situation | Challenge | Funded / Instant Funding (no add-on) | Funded / Instant Funding (with add-on) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red/restricted news window | Allowed | Must be flat 5 min before and no open/close until 5 min after (includes pendings) | Allowed |
| Weekend holding | Allowed | Must be flat by Friday close (close + cancel pendings) | Allowed |
| Crypto weekend | Allowed | Allowed (crypto never closes) | Allowed |
Example
You’re Funded, no News Trading add-on. You leave a buy stop pending. CPI hits, price jumps, your pending triggers inside the restricted window, that’s treated as executing a trade, you are out.
