Edit Position Option Missing


Guest AskStu

Question

I placed a short position using the graph trading screen. I then tried to edit the position to increase the stop loss. I'm used to doing this as sometimes the market has a slight blip so I increase my limit so that I don't realise a loss. I was disappointed to see that the edit position function had disappeared!

 

Now I am reluctant to even create a position as so cannot be sure that I'll find myself in the same state as not being able to edit the position.

 

Has anyone else found that that cannot edit positions?

 

...and, how can I fix it?!

    • I am a little puzzled about the claim of the DAX being an easy market to trade. Moreover, thank you for the charts examples, but I am skeptical about that too. I am too old in this game to believe any claim made on an historical piece of data. But please do give me some more pieces of hard tangible evidence that the DAX may be an easier market than let's say the Dow or the S&P. I can allow for my mind to be changed. In the mean-time I believe that trading is a minefield, and I am never careful enough. The DAX is no exception as far as I am concerned. All the best
    • The current global economic uncertainty has increased significantly, with consecutive declines in the US stock market and surging US Treasury yields putting pressure on global stock markets. Particularly for the Australian ASX 200 index, these factors directly influence investor confidence and market dynamics. Thomas McGee mentioned that the "higher for longer" rate policy of US may lead to global liquidity tightening, affecting liquidity and stock performance in the Australian market. Furthermore, historic highs in copper prices also indicate potential cost pressures and profitability challenges for resource-intensive markets like ASX 200. Performance Releases of Mining Giants and Market Expectations With several mining giants set to announce their March quarter financial results, market focus has shifted to the performance of these companies and their potential impact on the stock market. Thomas McGee believes that these results not only provide crucial information about industry health but also guide market sentiment and investment decisions. Against the backdrop of potential global demand slowdown, the production and profit performance of these mining companies will be a key focus for investors. Additionally, this serves as an important indicator to assess whether market expectations for future economic conditions are overly pessimistic. Investment Strategies and Market Outlook Considering the current global economic situation and domestic market dynamics, Thomas McGee emphasizes that investors need to adopt more cautious strategies and pay attention to changes in macroeconomic indicators and industry fundamentals. For ASX 200 investors, this means potentially adjusting portfolios and prioritizing industries that can withstand economic fluctuations and policy changes. Furthermore, maintaining sensitivity to changes in international financial markets and timely adjusting strategies will be crucial in addressing future market challenges. Through continuous market analysis and prudent risk management, investors can find opportunities for growth and returns in an unstable market environment.
