# 4. Close a Position

A position can be closed totally or partially by the trader at any time. These  actions make the margin (with its corresponding profit or loss) available for following trades or to be withdrawn from the Account Manager.

### Full Close

In order to close the position in its full size, traders can go to the Positions tab and use the Close button at the right of the selected Position without changing the preset 100%.

### Partial Close&#x20;

Positions can also be partially closed by changing the percentage in the Close button to one of the preset values ranging from 10% to 75%.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://academy.horizonprotocol.com/english-v2/futures/guides/trading-futures-on-horizon-protocol/4.-close-a-position.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
