Thanks for your post. 

If you have a leveraged account you can add a stop on the deal ticket when you open the position. If the positions is already opened you can go to positions tab and add a stop using the stop column. 

With out share dealing/ ISA accounts we don't offer stop losses but you can have a stop order (on exchange) but this order type means that we would sell at that price or worse. Another thing other traders do is set a price alert on the stock and once you get a notification you can login and try and sell the stock on exchange or at quote. 

I hope this helps

@CharlotteIG

Do you have any plans to add this functionality for the share dealing / ISA accounts?

If not and the only way would be to add an alert as you say, perhaps you could add a "Click to trade" alert based on set parameters. This may mean users may need to be glued to their phones for push notifications, rather than their screens, but in this day and age I think this is a more likely event.
