[Platforms] How do I close a trade in MT4/MT5?

Last updated on Oct 15, 2025

In order to manually close an open position, you must first locate it in the “Terminal Window.” For an open position to be closed manually you must locate it in the ‘Terminal’ window.

From there you can close it by locating the specific position you would like to close, right-clicking on it, and selecting “Close Order.”

Alternatively, you can double-tap on it in order to bring up the “Order Window,” and close the order from there.

Please be aware that if you have set valid pending orders, you do not have to close your position manually, it will automatically be closed once the price reaches the level you set in your pending order.
