Check the selected plan and terminal notice. TradFi’s 17:00 Chicago risk-day rollover is an accounting boundary, not an automatic trading halt.
Select a numbered step to zoom straight to that control.
Before an entry
Open Rules & objectives and Market calendar for your market.
Check the terminal banner for an account-specific news window or session restriction. The 17:00 Chicago TradFi risk-day rollover is an accounting boundary, not a trading halt.
If entries are unavailable, read the reason and resume time displayed by the platform.
During a restriction
API and TradingView follow the same server rules, so they cannot bypass a halt.
Check whether exits and working-order cancellations remain available.
If the shown resume time has passed but entries are still blocked, refresh status and contact support with the account ID.
Common questions
Does every calendar event block trading?
A calendar entry is information. An entry restriction depends on the plan’s configured news window and the server’s current decision.
The notice says entries are paused. Can I still exit?
Read the specific restriction. Exits and cancellations may remain available, but confirm their results in Orders and Positions.
You’re done when…
You have checked the account’s clock and the stated entry restriction, rather than assuming the market is closed.
If this does not match what you see, use Common questions above or contact support with the page and account details.Continue in QATS
