Why did my trade fail?

What to do if your order or trade fails

When you buy or sell through the SIX app, you will be able to see the status in Portfolio>Orders once you've submitted the order. If the order status is showing as failed this could be for a few reasons.

  • System timeout- occasionally there is a temporary system timeout that causes orders to fail.

  • A change in the price of your order- if the price of the stock goes up or down while you are submitting your order, this may cause your order to fail. Submitting a market order will reduce the likelihood of this happening.

To troubleshoot you can try:

  • Clearing your cache and cookies

  • Logging in through a different browser

  • Using incognito or private browse

If your orders are still failing, please reach out to our team through the chat in your account of at hello@six-invest.com.au and we'll take it from there!
