The Positions screen is accessible through the Main menu of the platform. It displays all opened positions. Every new opened position appears in this screen immediately.

The Positions screen displays a list of opened positions with short information about a symbol on which every position was opened: quantity and open price. Quantity of long positions is blue, quantity of short positions – red.

In order to get full information about a symbol, tap a symbol's name.

• Position exposure – exposure of a position, in the account currency. Calculated on base of an open price:

  Position exposure = Price * Quantity * Lot size * Cross price (quoting CCY > account currency) – calculation for Forex

  Position exposure = Price * Quantity * (Tick cost/Tick size) * Cross price (quoting CCY > account currency) – calculation for Futures

  In all cases Cross price (quoting CCY > account currency) is a current cross price.

Clicking the "Exercise" button in the confirmation box, creates a request for the Option exercise, which switches the position to Pending exercise status and prevents performing the following operations for the position: Modify position, Close position, Close all.

  The mentioned actions are reenabled for the position after the "Cancel exercise" action is performed. Also note that broker can prohibit American-style options from being exercised if the strike price is out of the money.

• Cancel exercise – cancels an exercise request for the selected Option position with Pending exercise status. Available for single positions opened for Options with Exercise style=American, inactive for multiple selected positions.

  After clicking this menu item, a confirmation dialog box is displayed, which requires a confirmation of canceling an Option exercise request. After the exercise Option request is canceled, the Modify position, Close position, Close all operations become allowed for the position.
