How Does Voluntary Freezing of Trading Account Work on FYERS?
Voluntary freezing lets you temporarily restrict all trading activity and login access on your FYERS account. This SEBI-mandated feature is useful if you suspect unauthorized activity, wish to take a break from trading, or want to secure your account for any reason.
Once frozen:
- You cannot place trades or modify orders
- Logins to FYERS Web, App, and Trader are blocked
- Account activity is paused until you unfreeze it
This feature is governed by SEBI’s 2024 circular. You can read the official circular here.
How to Freeze Your Trading Account
You can initiate the freeze directly through your FYERS account online. For the step-by-step process, refer to this article.
What if...
| Scenario | Outcome |
|---|
| I freeze my account voluntarily | Trading and logins are disabled until you request an unfreeze |
| I raise a freeze request with open positions | You’ll need to close positions first. Request won’t go through otherwise |
| I suspect unauthorized access | Freeze your account immediately online or contact support if needed |
| I face technical issues while freezing | Contact our support for help |
| I want to unfreeze my account later | Submit an online unfreeze request from your FYERS account |
You must close all open positions before your freeze request can be submitted successfully.
