The investment amount is the maximum loss you can have in a trade. If the price goes against your forecast, you can reduce this loss using the early sale function.
To access it, click the Trade icon on the chart or go to the Trades menu. Next to the word Close, you can see how much of your investment will return to your account if you close the trade prematurely.
If your trade amount is $1 and you decide to close it before the duration runs out, you’ll get $0.58 back into your account out of the initial $1. In other words, if your forecast is incorrect and you wait until the natural end of the trade, your loss will equal $1. However, with an early close, you could minimize that loss to $0.42.
