Just like in trading - and in life - there’s rarely a one-size-fits-all explanation.
An order may fail to execute for several reasons.

Some of the most common causes include:

  • Limit price too far from the market price

  • Insufficient funds in your trading account

  • A technical issue either on the broker’s side or due to temporary connectivity


How Will You Know?

When an order fails, you’ll be notified in three ways:

  1. Email alert

  2. Notification inside the Capitalise.ai platform

  3. The strategy will automatically stop running


How to Find the Cause

To see exactly why your order was rejected:

  1. Go to your strategy page

  2. Review the log messages and system notifications

These details will often specify whether the issue was due to pricing, insufficient funds, or something else.


If you’re unsure or believe the rejection was due to a system issue, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team via chat.
