How weekends and holidays can affect account information

D. Warnings and Important Notices
Friday's Trade Session

On occasion your Friday trade activity will not update over the weekend. This means that your performance / P&L will merge with your Monday trading session. Also, your orders will still show in the "Leeloo Recent Orders" section of R|Trader Pro instead of "Order History". In these instances, it will resolve itself by close of market Monday (Settlement).    

Holiday (half day) Trade Sessions

Only two US holidays have no trade session. Christmas (Dec 25th) and New Years (Jan 1).  All the other holidays have at least a partial (half day) session. For these half day holiday sessions, your trade information will not update until the following market day closes (at Settlement). This means that your performance / P&L will merge with the next market day trading session. Also, your orders will still show in the "Leeloo Recent Orders" section of R|Trader Pro instead of "Order History".


Warning: Do NOT engage in any trading activity with money you cannot afford to lose. Day trading can be extremely risky and offers no guarantee for success. You should not fund day-trading activities with retirement savings, student loans, second mortgages, emergency funds, funds set aside for purposes such as education or home ownership, or funds required to meet your living expenses. 

If you engage in day trading activities, set a budget and do not spend beyond your set budget.
