Have you gone to contracts and deleted it?

They don't finish on their own, even when expired.

The E symbol above your player image, on the top of the left sidebar. When you click on it, it should open other things, and go to business, then contracts.

That wasn't a contract, it was a sell order. Orders are on market, contracts are on contracts.

If it expired on its own allow for one downtime after it expired for the money to be returned.

Note that you never get the taxes or broker fees back.

Seriously? I did not know that.

Just assumed it was like items. You don't get them back until deleting the contract.

Items work the same way for market orders. The op used the wrong term and no contracts were involved in any of this as far as I can tell.

I'm still thinking it's a contract, although you may be right.

Funfact: ' / ' is the hotkey to open the E menu.
