How to Partially Close a Position in MetaTrader 5 Android App

Partial closing allows you to close only a portion of an open position, letting the rest stay active in the market. This is useful for securing profits while maintaining exposure.

• • Launch the MetaTrader 5 app on your Android device.
• • Tap the “Trade” tab at the bottom to see your current open positions.

• • Locate the position you want to partially close.
• • Long-press (tap and hold) the position to open the action menu.
• • Tap “Close Position” from the menu.

• • On the close order screen, you will see a “Volume” field at the top.
• • By default, it shows the full position size (e.g., 1.00 lot).
• • Tap the volume field and enter a smaller value for example, enter 0.50 to close half.

• • Once the reduced volume is set, tap the “Close with Profit” or “Close with Loss” button depending on current P/L status.
• • The app will execute a partial close of the specified volume.

• • After the partial close, the remaining position will still be visible in the “Trade” tab.
• • The lot size shown will now reflect the reduced amount (e.g., 0.50 lot if 0.50 was closed from 1.00).
