Why can't I buy or sell a tokenized stock?
On Pluang, the most common reason a tokenized stock order doesn't go through is that the US market is closed: Tokenized Stocks follow the same trading hours and order rules as US Stocks, so orders aren't executed outside those hours. If the market is open, check that your USD Cash covers the total, including fees and tax. The table below covers the other causes.
| Symptom / Condition | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| The app shows that the market is closed | Tokenized stocks are executed only during US Stocks trading hours | Wait for the opening time shown in the app. Orders placed while the market is closed follow the same rules as US Stocks orders. |
| You can't confirm a buy order | Your USD Cash doesn't cover the amount plus the transaction fee, third-party fees and tax | Lower the amount, or convert rupiah to USD first. The order summary shows the total you need. |
| Your order amount is too small | The same minimum order amounts as US Stocks apply | Increase the amount to at least the minimum shown on the trade page. |
| You can't sell the amount you entered | The amount is higher than your tokenized stock balance | Check your holding in the US Stocks part of your portfolio and enter an amount within it. |
| Trading in this tokenized stock is paused | Trading can be paused, for example during a corporate action or when trading in the company's shares is halted | Check the asset page and your notifications for an announcement. You can trade again once the pause ends. |
| Buy or Sell doesn't respond | An outdated app version or a connection problem | Update the Pluang app, check your internet connection and try again. |
If the issue persists:
Contact Pluang Care via live chat in the Pluang app, email tanya@pluang.com, or call (021) 8063 0065 (Monday to Friday, 09:00–18:00 WIB). Include the tokenized stock's ticker, the time you tried and a screenshot of the message you saw.

Q: Can I place an order to run when the market opens?
It works as for US Stocks: an order placed while the market is closed isn't executed until trading opens, and which order types you can use depends on the session.
Q: Why is the market closed when crypto trading is open?
Tokenized stocks are crypto assets, but they follow the company's shares on the US market, so they keep US Stocks trading hours.
Q: Can I use rupiah if my USD Cash is short?
Not directly. Convert rupiah to USD first, then place your order. The conversion has its own exchange rate and fee.
