Your position will be closed either instantly with a market order or by a limit order (i.e take profit):

In the position closure confirmation window, you can select to close your position fully (100%) or partially (from 1 to 99%):

• FULL position close - this will result in the trade being closed entirely and PnL being settled accordingly:

• PARTIAL position close - close 1% to 99% of your position (for example if your trade size is $100 then closing 40% of your position will result in the size of your position being reduced by $40 and the profit/loss for this portion of the trade will be settled. The remaining 60% ($60) of the trade will be active and will continue to generate PnL:

When managing active orders, it is also possible to set up Take Profit and Stop Loss orders to automatically close a position fully or partially.
