Here is how online trades move from order placement to final delivery:

Acceptance: You place an order through your broker’s website or app, where automated risk checks instantly verify your available funds or shares before accepting and routing the trade to an exchange.

Processing: The stock exchange’s automated matching engine matches your buy or sell order with an opposing order based on price and time priority, executing the trade and notifying your broker.

Clearing: A central clearinghouse steps in post-trade to match transaction details, calculate net obligations (money and securities owed), and guarantee performance between both parties' brokers.

Settlement: On settlement day (typically $T+1$), the clearinghouse orchestrates the final transfer—electronically debiting/crediting funds through central banks and transferring digital share ownership via a central securities depository.

You can place your online orders 24/7 at any time, but their execution depends on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) market hours:

Regular Market Hours: Orders placed during standard trading sessions (Monday to Thursday: 9:15 AM – 3:30 PM | Friday: 9:15 AM – 12:30 PM & 2:30 PM – 4:30 PM) are executed in real time.

Off-Market Hours & Weekends: Orders placed outside trading hours, overnight, or on weekends are queued and will automatically process as soon as the market opens on the next business day.

Yes, you can cancel any pending or unexecuted order at any time before it gets filled in the market:

ending / Queued Orders: Go to your platform's active order book or order status menu, select the outstanding order, and click Cancel Order.

Partially Filled Orders: If an order has been partially executed, you can still cancel the remaining unexecuted balance.

Executed Orders: Please note that once an order is fully executed (matched in the market), it cannot be canceled or modified.

Generally, you can place standard order types like Market, Limit, and Stop-Loss orders, but certain restrictions apply based on market regulations and account parameters:

Circuit Breakers & Price Limits: Limit orders must fall within the daily upper and lower price caps (circuit breakers) set by the stock exchange for that specific security.

Margin & Cash Balances: Buy orders are restricted by your available cash or approved margin limits, while sell orders require a sufficient holdings balance in your CDC account.

Short Selling & Restricted Stocks: Blank short selling and orders on suspended, phased-out, or non-tradable securities are restricted per market regulatory guidelines.
