What Does “Market Is Closed” Mean?

Market is closed” means the instrument you’re trying to trade is outside its trading hours, so orders can’t be placed.

Common reasons in XS.com:

Weekend (most markets close Saturday–Sunday)
Public holiday
Instrument-specific trading hours (indices, stocks, crypto differ from forex)
Daily maintenance break (some symbols)
