Did anyone get an answer to this. I am suffering the same issue and going round and round in circles. This platform is not very intuitive

The silence is deafening. 

The orders available on the share dealing platform are as available on the actual exchange itself that the shares are traded on. Exhanges are different and many esp US exchanges banned stop loss orders years ago.

However, a stop loss order is just an equal and opposite order to that used to buy the shares.

see this thread;

This example looks like its from an old build, in the version of the platform im looking at I cannot perform this as I cannot set,  'good til cancel' on most of my positions, the only option is "Day" for "expiry" and the only "order type" is "Limit". so not sure how can we setup, stop losses that last more than a day, can we please get some assistance on this?!

that is correct, the reply was based on the old platform but the basic principle of only offering what is actually available on the particular exchange was carried over to the new platform.

The same applies for GTC orders, see here is a reply to the same question on a previous thread.

Also a note that this forum was set up for clients to exchange info and ideas and was never meant to be a back door to the helpdesk, though occassionally a moderator may perform that task - based on long term observation - I can say it's more likely they won't. 

However, I can recommend the search facility as the answer to most quetions are to be found on the forum somewhere. Sometimes you can get better search results using google > IG community ...

So why can I only see, "Day" for my expiry, not "good til cancel"? Would this not mean that we would have to setup the same stop loss daily?

    • We've seen Web3 revolutionize finance, art, and ownership, but the full potential hasn't been tapped especially when it comes to AI. What if AI models and apps didn't belong to massive corporations but to the people building them? What if creators could actually connect, share, and monetize their AI innovations without gatekeepers? That's what KIP Protocol is setting out to do, and it's an idea that feels long overdue. KIP's structure is clever without being overly complicated. The Application Layer lets you turn your AI app into an ERC-3525 SFT, linking it directly to models and knowledge assets while tracking every interaction on the $KIP ledger. The Settlement Layer makes value transfer seamless, and the Ownership Layer ensures your data and knowledge are securely stored but still accessible for retrieval-augmented AI. It's decentralized, secure, and most importantly it’s built for creators, not just institutions. This is more than a protocol; it's a chance to redefine how AI works in the Web3 space. But then there is $KIP Listing Carnival on BingX where we get to share the 3,000,000 rewards up for grabs within six days. If you're into AI or Web3, this might just be your next move. 
    • Here's a price analysis for Magic Eden (ME) based the current hype around the token especially with Bitget and Binance Listing today   Current Price and Market Dynamics: Current Price: The $ME token is currently trading at around $9.02, with a recent increase of about +5.37% over the past 24 hours. This data reflects the price as of the latest update. Market Sentiment: There's a mix of optimism and caution around $ME. Some posts on X suggest that the token might be overvalued at its current price, with one user stating, "Magic Eden is heavily overvalued at $9 btw. Fair price is $0." However, there's also anticipation around events like the $ME airdrop, which seems to be fueling some positive market sentiment.   Short-Term Predictions: Airdrop Influence: The upcoming $ME airdrop has been a significant point of discussion. With the airdrop now live, there's an expectation of high selling pressure initially, which could lead to a price dip. However, following this, some analysts are optimistic about the price recovering and potentially surpassing $6-$7 within days after the initial sell-off.   Price Targets: Users on X have set various price targets post-airdrop, with one suggesting an initial profit-taking around the $125-$140 area for those who received the airdrop. Another prediction sees the price potentially reaching $10 within a couple of days of trading, with optimistic scenarios pushing to $15.    Long-Term Outlook: Market Cap and Liquidity: Given Magic Eden's position as a leading NFT marketplace and the introduction of its token across multiple exchanges, there's potential for increased liquidity and market cap growth. The token's integration into services like staking, rewards, and governance could further drive its value if adoption within the Magic Eden ecosystem grows. Fundamental Analysis: Magic Eden's expansion to multiple blockchains, user-friendly enhancements, and its robust community support are positive signs for long-term growth. However, the volatile nature of crypto markets, especially around significant events like airdrops, means investors should be prepared for both rapid gains and potential corrections. Risks and Challenges: The high initial selling pressure post-airdrop and the general market sentiment towards new tokens can be significant hurdles. Additionally, competition in the NFT marketplace sector and broader market conditions (like regulatory changes or shifts in crypto popularity) could affect $ME's price trajectory.   Conclusion: The $ME token shows signs of both immediate volatility due to the airdrop event and potential for growth based on Magic Eden's market position and expansion plans. Event like Poolx, and Candybomb campaigns on Bitget and various exchanges could have both positive and negative impact on the price but they offer a good opportunity for users to earn airdrops of the token. 
    • Came across AUSD recently, and I’m not entirely sure what to make of it yet. On one hand, it’s another 1:1 USD-backed stablecoin, nothing groundbreaking there. But their approach feels like a shift from the usual. Instead of just being a product, it’s more like a framework where exchanges, dApps, and other ecosystem players drive its utility. That could be a double-edged sword: more adoption potential, but also less centralized control.   The interesting part is how they’re rolling it out. There’s a staking event on BingX starting December 12th, where users can earn a share of 150,000 AUSD by staking USDT or BTC. Not a bad way to get involved if you’re curious, especially with no upfront buying risk. It’ll be listed on BingX by the 17th, so the timing feels deliberate gathering some momentum before it officially hits the market.   Anyone else think this approach could either be genius or fall flat depending on how well their partners deliver?
