I’m kinda new to all this. I thought I would start small and put in an order when it said the market was closed. It’s now open but I’m still pending, any reason why this is happening? Thanks 👍

The instrument appears to be very illiquid, as the majority, if not all, of the trades since the opening bell have been “off-book”. Apart from that, it is traded via SETSqx, which means that order execution only occurs during the official auctions throughout the day.
