Everyone can see your stop on your 1 car. That's what it means when everyone on here tells you to "Study price action". Congrats, you're on your way to becoming an outstanding, somewhat paranoid,trader. Now don't forget to order you special "3D Stop Loss Viewing Goggles" and "Members Only Jacket"
I am not an expert on this, but I am always trying to learn and educate myself, this is coincidentally what I am currently studying... so far Iâve been able to gather than it can depend on a combination of broker, exchange, and order type... different order types can either be native to an exchange or simulated... native orders are stored at the exchange, and then when native orders arenât supported, your broker should be able to simulate the order, and it can be simulated either client-side on your software, or server-side on the brokerageâs end... im still not 100% sure about all this though.
HAHAHA.. I have a pair of "3D Stop Loss Viewing Goggles" for sale on ebay... They will cost you $5,000 or 250 mini-NQ points... I can take payment in dollars or points, whichever you prefer..
On a more serious note, the chief technical analyst (a CBOT veteran of 17 years) at my brokerage mentioned that the market makers and pros do perform "shakeouts." They know that the amateurs tend to place their stops at exact dollar amounts or right on fibonacci numbers to the cent. He suggested placing your stops at oddball prices like $44.89 for example if you really want a stop at $45.00.
You, OTOH, never use stops. You even fail to close your position even when it is obviously completely wrong. So now you are still down 1000+ YM points since your predictions that it could only go up. Which is US$5000 per contract (since you only trade on paper you might not know that). OP is trying to become a non-noob, you aren't even trying. Ursa..
