Log in to cTrader and open the platform.
Open the chart of the instrument you want to trade.
Hover over the Buy or Sell button on the chart.
Drag the pending order control onto the chart.
Drop it at the exact price level where you want the order to be placed.
Adjust the order details if needed, such as volume or protection settings.
Confirm the order to place it.
Once confirmed, your pending order will remain active until the market reaches the selected price or until you manually modify or cancel it. This gives you more control over your entry compared to placing a market order immediately.
