Clicking-and-holding during a magnetic lasso will cause the tool to "lose it's magic", and behave like the standard lasso tool, until you release the mouse button again.

So, when you're approaching the edge, click and hold, then move outside the edge of the doc, just as you tried. At the point you want to resume magnetic selection, let go of the button and continue tracing the edge.
