While experimenting with a trading strategy in the CFD Demo account I receive the following error message when trying to trade the FTSE 100 (cash) £2:

Rejected: Stop too close

Why would this happen? My stop loss is 1.39% away from the current price.

This only seems to be an issue when I try to open a position at 8am for the FTSE. When employing the same strategy for US and Asian markets I do not receive the same error message and my trades executive fine.

Does anyone else face a similar problem? Happy to provide more information if required.

Thanks for your help,

Ed

Hi @EdwardThJones

During times of volatility like market events or announcements, we may widen the minimum stop distances. However, seeing as there were no announcements yesterday. Please confirm if this issue occurs every time or it was a once off occurrence?

    • Summary: Still expecting another low for indices, the current move up part of a corrective rally. Normally I look for indices lead from stocks, however some stocks are displaying strength and some weakness so this mix bag is showing up in the Nasdaq 100 pattern as a probable wave four triangle at the current low.

    • A lot of transformation is happening to BNB at the moment with the integration of bitcoin lightning network and Optimism especially with opBNB birth but that has not reflected in users confidence primarily because of the many negativities surrounding the platforms operations in North America and Australia. BGB on the other is gaining traction and value because a lot of investment is going into the development of the ecosystem recently with the injection of $100M and also improved partnership deals
    • I know we still have a lot to do to attract massive crypto adoption but steps like those taken by Binance and bitget in the wake of what happened to FTX is commendable in righting the wrongs of the lapses and loopholes that exist pre-FTX saga. But more still needs to be done to restore confidence to the level it was pre-2020 bear market like consistent regulatory framework and regular security updates by crypto platforms
