  1. Limit Orders and Market Orders support "Good-till-date" instructions, allowing buy or sell instructions to remain valid for up to 10 trading days. The system will automatically default the instruction to be valid for the day (T day). If you specify an expiry date, the instruction will remain active until the end of that date unless triggered, cancelled or rejected beforehand. Should the instruction not be executed during the validity period, it will automatically carry over to the next trading day until expiry. If partially filled on any day within the validity period, the unexecuted shares will be canceled by end of day, meaning the order will not carry forward to the final expiry date.
  2. Available only during trading hours.
