Stop Loss options not being displayed

[baltimix]

Hi,

New to all this and just trying to figure out the platform. I don't seem to be able to set Stop Losses on my positions. Which, I don't understand as these are available on my Demo Account, for the same position. 

I don't even get the settings option to remember my stop loss settings.

Any ideas?

Hi @baltimix,

The Demo account simulate a CFD account. On a share trading account you can't add a Stop Loss

You can see Order type : Quote  or Limit Order because the market is closed at the moment ( on the screenshot), Once the market is live you will have more options.

All the best - Arvin
