A pending order is a request to buy or sell an instrument when certain conditions specified by you are reached. It is important to know that due to the dynamic market movements, your pending order may be executed at a different price than the one you have set.

The Limit order allows you to set the maximum price you are willing to pay when buying shares or respectively, the minimum amount to get when selling shares. If the price of the stock meets the specified criteria, this will trigger the pending order and your request will be executed at the first available price.

The Stop order aims to BUY or SELL a certain amount of shares once a pre-specified price is reached. If the stock reaches that price, this will trigger the order and it will be executed. When selling, you can prevent further losses or lock in profits if the target price is reached.

All pending orders can be found in the “Portfolio” tab of the app. Under the “Pending orders” section you will find all the placed orders that haven't been executed yet. To cancel one, select "Cancel order".

Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are financial instruments with which you can invest in a single or a pool of assets, as opposed to buying individual stocks. They can be used as a way to diversify your portfolio in a simplified manner.

They are similar to mutual funds, but with some key differences. ETFs offer lower investment minimums and they trade during the day, like normal stocks, unlike mutual funds, which trade at market close. This way, you get more control over your profit or loss amount, while mutual funds trade at the same price for everybody on any given day.

Depending on how dividends are managed, ETFs are either Accumulating or Distributing.

Accumulating ETFs reinvest the total dividend amount into their net value while Distributing ETFs distribute the dividends across the shareholders.

A Stock Split is a corporate action in which a company proportionally increases the number of its shares without changing the shareholders’ equity. This is often done to make stocks more affordable for investors. For example, if you own 10 shares of a company that trades at $100 per share and the company declares a 2:1 stock split, you will own 20 shares at $50 per share immediately after the split. If the company pays a dividend, your dividends paid per share will also fall proportionately.

A Reverse Stock Split is the opposite of a Stock Split. During this corporate event a company will consolidate its shares by a certain proportion. For example, if you own 100 shares at $100 after a 1:10 reverse stock split, you will own 10 shares at $1000. This action will not affect your equity and dividends will again be proportionally adjusted.

SDRT is a tax imposed by the UK government on electronically purchased UK shares.

Free shares are given to you free of tax.

All open positions will be closed at the end of the delisting day at the last available price.
