Anatomy of an SMG Trade

Step 4a

During Trading Hours

The trade will be processed that evening, but will
receive the price at the exact time the trade was
entered, and will appear in the Transaction History,
Account Summary, Account Holdings, and
Gains/Losses (if applicable) in the portfolio the
next day.

or Step 4b

During Non- Trading Hours

The trade will stay on the Pending Transaction
page until it is processed the night of the next
market day. It will receive the first opening price of
that market day, this takes place between 10 and
10:30AM to be sure an opening trade has taken
place, and will appear on the portfolio pages listed
in the box to the left the next day.

Note: A transaction that remains in Pending Transactions for more than a brief period of time may not have been accepted and will likely
move to the Transaction Notes page with a message of PROBLEM WITH ORDER. Be aware that this message may not mean the trade will
not go through; just that it did not follow the usual path. A clue is whether it remains listed a Pending instead of Accepted on the Pending
Transaction page. Be sure to follow up on the type of situation. If the condition is due to a system wide problem, we will not make a manual
adjustment since everyone is affected the same. If however, if this is an isolated incident unrelated to a system wide problem, we will make
the necessary changes to a portfolio (if the game has not ended.)
