Stocks that become “un-tradable” through the API can often be liquidated via the web portal. In this case, Hertz Global Holdings (HTZ) was de-listed on 10-3-2020 and became “un-tradable” through Alpaca’s normal processes and the API. However, it still trades over the counter (OTC) and can be traded through other channels.

Go to the [web portal overview page](https://app.alpaca.markets/brokerage/dashboard/overview). The portfolio positions are listed and to the right of each position there is an X. Click on the X.

A dialog box will pop up asking if you wish to liquidate your position. Click “Confirm Liquidation”. That should do it. Note this only works on the portfolio page. Un-tradable stocks cannot be liquidated from the “positions” page or through the normal process of entering an order. Just a system limitation at the moment.

However, if that for some reason fails, submit a support ticket to support@alpaca.markets and it can be handled manually.
