How to Close a Position
Close a position at the market
Right click on that position in the "Open
Positions" window. You will then be prompted with the pop-up menu.
Select "Close Position":

You will then be prompted to confirm that you wish
to close the position at the current market (the price displayed in the "Price
Close" column of the Open Positions window.
Close a position with a Stop, Limit or Trailing
Stop
Right click on that position in the "Open
Positions" window. You will then be prompted with the pop-up menu.
Select "Modify Order". You will then see the "Modify S/L & T/P"
window in which you can input your Stop Loss, Take Profit (Limit), or Trailing
Stop order:

The Stop and/or Take Profit (Limit) order will now display along
with the Open Position:

It will remain until you further modify it, or
until the position is closed. It is automatically cancelled once the
position is closed.
Trailing Stop
A Trailing Stop will remain at a specified
distance as the market moves in your position's favor (following or "trailing"
the market), but will remain fixed if the market moves against the position,
acting like a one-way ratchet. Enter the number of pips away from the current
market at which you wish to set the Trailing Stop.

In this example, a Trailing Stop of "30" with a
short GBP/USD position at 1.7517 will place the stop initially at 1.7547.
