Partial Position Closes: Taking Some Profit Without Exiting Entirely
What it does
A partial close realizes profit or loss on part of a position's lot size immediately, while the remaining lots stay open at the exact same entry price and time as before — it's not a new position, just a smaller version of the original one.
The terminal's Close modal defaults to the full lot size but includes quick 25%/50%/75%/100% buttons alongside a manual input, so scaling out of a position doesn't require calculating the exact remaining lot size by hand.
A common use case
Taking 50% off a position once it reaches a first profit milestone, then letting the remaining half run (often with a trailing stop applied to it) is a standard way to bank some of a trade's gain without fully capping the upside if the move continues.
What stays the same on the remainder
Stop loss, take profit, and trailing stop settings on the remaining lots are untouched by a partial close — only the lot size changes. If you want different risk management on the remainder, that's a separate Modify action.
