Hi @boomerang

Thank you for reaching out. 

There are two ways to add a trailing stop. 

1. You can insert a trailing stop when putting in a market order to deal at the current price. This can be done under "Deal" (or Trade in he mobile app) from the dealing ticket on the platform.

2. From open positions. 

If you click in the stop box, it gives you the option to select the drop down error where you can find the option to add a trailing stop. You will need to add the following for the trailing stop to be accepted:

  • Stop Level Price level at which current position will close if no trailing advantages occur
  • Stop Distance Number of points the stop level should be away from the current price when trailing advantages occur
  • Step Distance Number of points the underlying market will need to move before trailing advantages occur

Wave Cancel invalid level: 0.60536 The "NZDUSD Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge Day Chart" dated 7 December 23, provides a comprehensive examination of the New Zealand Dollar/U.S. Dollar (NZDUSD) currency pair's price action within a daily timeframe. Employing Elliott Wave analysis, the report aids traders in understanding the ongoing trends, corrections, and potential future movements in the market. The designated "Function" of the market is identified as "Trend," indicating a primary focus on recognizing and capitalizing on the prevailing directional movement. Understanding the trend is crucial for traders aligning their strategies with the predominant market dynamics. The analysis characterizes the current market "Mode" as "corrective as red wave 4," signifying that the present phase is corrective within the context of the fourth wave in the Elliott Wave sequence. Corrective waves typically represent temporary counter-trend movements before the primary trend resumes. The primary "Structure" is labeled as "red wave 4 of 3," providing insights into the ongoing correction within the larger Elliott Wave structure. This information is essential for traders seeking to grasp the current phase within the broader market context. The specified "Position" is denoted as "Black wave 1," offering information about the current wave count within the broader Elliott Wave sequence. This aspect assists traders in understanding the market's position within the larger wave cycle.

This guidance is valuable for traders aiming to align their positions with the anticipated direction of the trend. In terms of "Details," the analysis notes that "red wave 4 of blue wave 3 is in play," signaling an ongoing corrective phase within the context of the third wave of a larger degree. The anticipation is that, following this correction, "red wave 5" will commence, representing the resumption of the overall trend. The "Wave Cancel invalid level" is identified as "0.60536," serving as a critical threshold. If the market reaches this level, it would invalidate the current wave count, prompting a reconsideration of the prevailing market conditions.

The analysis provides insights into the wave structure, position, expected next wave, and a crucial level for potential wave cancellation within the broader trend.
