Cannot move the stops!!!


OptionsTrader

Question

i have several 1 point and 2 points positions opened at the moment.

I move the stop to breakeven to walk away from the screen. I get the message "Position amended". And then the stop goes right back to initial place!!!

Why is that? It only happens with the £2 positions, the £1 positions I can change with no problem.

Hi @OptionsTrader, limits and stops will have a minimum distance whereby you cannot place them within the minimum points away. This might be one of the reasons why your stop amendments are rejected. I have looked into your account but could not find a £2 where your stop was rejected. If you could send us an email with the specific details we could look into it further for you.

Thanks Daniela, I closed all the £2 positions since I could not be in front of the screen. I am opening £1 and £1.5 now and things seem to be working fine again. 

Also, I opened an order in the US Dollar basket but it does not show up in the chart?

Some stocks will make new highs, and some won’t, but they will still have the same wave count and I will explain this in today’s video. That said there are stocks like Tesla that are different, however they will move the same on an intraday basis, just with different Elliott wave counts.

    • Thanks. A really interesting video and some interesting statistics and analysis. I haven't the time to go back and analyse whether a strong November increases the chance of there not being a Santa rally, although one of the slides highlights that the negative Santa Rally years were tied with poor November returns for the market such as 2000, 2008 etc which seems a contradiction.  Would I short and back against it happening? When it occurs in over 80% of years... absolutely not.  The Santa Rally – Christmas Growth in the Stock Market. (moneysandi.com)
