Trading short and long simultaneously

Question

i was looking to trade both short and long in app. So added a buy position to hedge over the short term but the trade resulted in the expose to my short position being reduced. Is It possible to avoid this and run multiple trade simultaneously

Hi @576

You would need to use the 'Force Open' feature which allows you to hedge. If 'Net Off' is selected than your buy order would close the already existing short position. You can find this feature on the Trade/Deal ticket when placing a trade. 

All the best, OfentseIG
