      What will happen to open position if stop loss/take profit not reach by price till market close that day?

    • @Trading212
      @Trading212  6 років тому +9

      The position will remain open, since the price level for triggering the Take Profit or Stop Loss hasn't been reached. You may find details about the pending orders on Trading 212 at www.trading212.com/en/Frequently-asked-questions?cId=5.

      As someone who just started out trading I find it tricky to determine when to put my stop-loss relatively close to my buy in as to limit risk, and when to put the stop-loss at specific price levels like the support level of a trend, or the previous low in a rising stock (somewhere that would suggest trend change). Those levels are often different from a 1-3 % risk level, but perhaps those work out better long term? If the trend isn't broken just hold on, so to say. Any thoughts to help out a new trader?

      AndrioxS: I believe that you can guess that one: Unless a drastic shift in the price of the stock occurs like a thief in the night, your position will still be working (still in the trade) for the next day.

    These videos are damn good Mr. Jones. I think 50 points is ideal stop loss size. New traders have problem with chasing prices, so they buy close to the top and close the trade at pullback with loss. I was the same.

  • @grav8842
    @grav8842 4 роки тому +3

    Is it a good idea (on mid- to lage-cap stocks) to put your stop loss a cent under support (, or when you’re shorting a cent above resistance). Because that’s where a lot of reversal happens, traders will for example buy as soon as it hit’s a certain support. So if you are just under that support and your wrong and it breaks, you’re out but lost bearly anything extra than if you put it at support. And when your right and the market turns around you’re still in. So is it a good idea?
    Edit: Grammar

    When the stop loss is triggered but the asset is going up right after, how do you decide if you buy back or if you wait and hope for it to go back down to minimize potential loss?

    • @davidjones2452
      @davidjones2452 7 років тому +14

      Hi, for me if the stop loss is triggered it means a major support has been broken. So, I would want to sit back and see how the price action unfolds for a while to re-asses.

    There is a common mistake that all new traders make. They trade with fixed LOT size where the loss varies in every trade.
    They fail to understand how important it is to trade with percentage per trade where the loss would be the same for every trade, however the LOT size will vary depending on where the stop loss is.
    Before entering a trade you want to know exactly how much you will lose if the trade goes against you

    • @Trading212
      @Trading212  6 років тому

      The Stop Loss orders' execution is guaranteed during market hours. That is why a requirement for a minimum distance from the current relevant price is introduced. It aims to avoid a premature order execution, due to a slight price movement.

    Theres one problem ive been having a lot, i have only been trading crypto for just under two weeks now. One time i bought Rise coin and it shot up 105 percent in a few hours. I ended up selling at 10 percent because stupid me decided to push it and wait for the stock to keep rising. Now when you are in the profit territory. Do i update my stop loss right over the price i bought the stock at? I bought at 100, now its 150. So should i set stop loss at 120. Because to me it feels wrong that i could be losing that extra 30 if it does drop. So what should i do in a profit situation like that in your opinion?

    Hi just to say I find the videos really helpful and I enjoy using the app. One question, when buying, how do I know how much money will be took from my total? For example buying 2000 gold and being in -£20, how do I know how much I am spending?

    How to place a stoploss when you want to be in the trade for two weeks?

    I’m just wondering why you set a stop loss above the highs? I’m very new to trading lol i always thought the stop loss was below the current price?
    Thanks

    • @Trading212
      @Trading212  7 років тому +2

      The stop loss can be above the current price when you enter a short position, i.e. one that would be profitable if the price went down. Here's a bit more about that ua-cam.com/video/5-1LYR3eeNw/v-deo.html

    Good info but Mr Jones does not respond to any questions. Very disappointing. Did I miss someting? How much of my position do I sell at the chosen stop loss price - 100%, 80%? Sort of important dude, but sort overlooked.

    I don’t have stop losses yet, just Cus some of my stocks are so volatile, they move up and down 10% in a day.

    Hello David,
    1) How to cut our loss during geopolitical concerns. Mkt just crashes, we never know how much time it will take to recover. this is happening since few weeks.
    2) How about ATR, will it not give a better chance to keep our SL dynamically.
    Could you cover this in ur upcoming video.
    Thanks

      Thanks for the links.
      For swing trading/carry over position of Futures, despite having exit plans, we get caught in the inevitable crash (have seen during 15-30 min of pre-market window). What additional contingency plans do we need to be aware of.

      Hi Mohith. Thanks for the question. I don't think there is much you can do to be honest. if we are talking about major market crashes, they don't happen that often. News events e.g. interest rate decisions, elections etc can increase volatility so if you were really worried about a crash perhaps best to wait until these are out of the way if you are a very short-term trader. But there is no magic way to avoid the unexpected - thankfully, in my experience at least, these events don't happen too often.

    How do trailing stop losses work?

    • @Trading212
      @Trading212  5 років тому

      Hi there, we have a nice tutorial explaining how the Trailing Stop works, so make sure to watch it - ua-cam.com/video/-4dIZPhm0uo/v-deo.html
      Put simply, the Trailing Stop order places a Stop Loss at a certain distance away from the instrument’s current market price and follows the market’s movement. If the market moves in the desired direction, the Trailing Stop automatically follows the price of the instrument at the set distance. If the market moves in the opposite direction, then the Trailing Stop remains stationary.

    IM CONFUSED! For example, if you have an account with £1000 balance, and you risk 2% of your account for a trade, which is £20 and you use a lot size of 0.02 (which is 20p per pip movement. If you have a stop loss which is more than 100 pips, and you hit your stop loss, then surely you would be losing more than £20. So you are losing more than your 2% are you not?
