What are Limit Orders, Stop Orders, Stop Limit Orders and Trailing Orders?

[@jonaholsen8668]

5 KZbin videos later and I finally found a simple coherent explanation that clicked.

[@ThatFinanceShow]

Hey nice summary Sasha, I think most people don’t use any of these through not understanding but certainly can be useful.

[@SashaYanshin]

Yep - I had a feeling this wasn't going to be a popular one with my existing audience but hopefully the video will help people for some time in the future :)

[@wolesofttechnologiesltd9688]

Excellent explanation of stop and limit orders. Thanks!

[@SashaYanshin]

👍

[@Clarioner1]

This is the terminology that Trading 212 uses, and I find it confusing.... eToro uses much clearer terminology - Order at, Stop loss, and Take Profit, so much simpler.

[@SashaYanshin]

Yeah - Stop Loss is a particularly popular term that is probably used more than the technical version but these are not just Trading 212 Terms - these are the "proper" ways these things are called in the industry :)

[@mar.mar.2]

I certainly found this useful! Like all of your videos)) thanks you!

Thanks Maria!

The likelihood of this video hitting even 10,000 views is zero but I appreciate the support! 😂

[@Andromedaxterr]

Just made a nice chicken paprikash Your video is best companion Iam trying to understand the difference between limit order and market order.

[@SashaYanshin]

Market Order is the easy bit that I didn’t even bother covering :))

Nice and clear

Thanks Ian!

Great video man

Thank you Zachary!

[@BittermanAndy]

Trailing stop orders sound really useful.

[@SashaYanshin]

They would be if people offered them outside CFDs :)

[@willlsmith8063]

Top video.......thank you

Thanks Will!

[@johanvargas2861]

I finally found a good explanation of this. Some KZbinrs are teaching that wrong. Thank you very much.

[@thekraken7722]

Really good informative video Sasha...now a fully fledged subscribed member and pleased to have joined. Stay frosty.

[@SashaYanshin]

Thank you Ian! Got some good stuff coming out over the next few days so stay tuned and really appreciate your support with that green mug emoji! 🤗

[@goldi3618]

Very well explained 👌👍

[@SashaYanshin]

Thanks!

[@mccandless1]

Great stuff as always Sasha. It's a shame regular investors don't really get access to pre and post market where some crazy stuff sometimes happens.

[@SashaYanshin]

Let's hope the big US investing apps make their way across the pond at some point!

[@lawrencesinderson]

Had to watch a couple of times to get the ideas fixed in my head. I do agree Trailing Stop Orders would mean I could "bake" in my gains on a regular basis and reduce my exposure. I hope you will highlight any of the trading platforms that introduce this feature first.

[@SashaYanshin]

Thanks Lawrence and will definitely be covering any interesting updates as and when I come across them!

Nice, good job. Explained even for me laboratory monkey. I love pictures and I am going subscribe.

Thank you Kevin!

[@kirkrothes8040]

Hi Sasha. Very useful as always, love you videos. Just a shame that Trading 212 has stopped the stop and limit orders for low value, also never supported these on fractional shares. I think they are implementing the latter, however the value restriction still applies, at least for now. Hopefully this will get changed as it was very useful. Thanks for your content 👍😎

[@SashaYanshin]

Would be nice to have an app that literally just works - all the order types for full and fractional shares on all stocks available through the app would be a pretty neat start!

[@blak-gold7188]

Dam…. I’m I so dumb or what? I still haven’t find a short simple video to open my mind to this part. I was getting it in the beginning then he mixed it all up and crushed my brain. Please can someone explain the difference between BUY ( Limit & Stop ) and the SELL ( Limit & Stop )? I’m new to crypto. Thanks so much.

[@christopherblake6695]

Hey Sasha why is it that trading212 don't allow trailing stops, I presume they must make more money if we lose on our trades?

[@kylesimpson6729]

So with limit orders is that a one time thing or is it on repeat? So what i mean is if I'm at $100 and I want it to buy at $50 and then sell at $200 will it cycle this so once it reaches $200 to sell if it goes back down to $50 will it buy again and then obviously sell at $200 if it reaches that again and then just keep doing this because I'm thinking of investing in to penny stocks nothing crazy just a few hundred and set the expiry date for the end of the month (If possible) and I know with penny stocks they are constantly up and down so yh was gonna see if I could take advantage of that as im working obviously monday to Friday i can't be constantly checking it but with this is will do it for me I just need to know if it repeats or if I have to set it up everytime it reaches the sell price. If that makes sense I'm new to this😂

[@amirpenkar947]

Yeah there is something dodgy going on 4 times this month you've posted a video on a topic I've been thinking of 🤔🤔🤔

[@SashaYanshin]

Think of topics more often so I can make more videos!

This is crazy! Literally a couple of minutes ago I was trying to learn about this then popped on to KZbin and guess what!

[@rosepetalsfashionltd5854]

can UK resident open US broker account who allow to trade premarket orders as well ?

[@SashaYanshin]

Nope. Would be nice though...

[@rosepetalsfashionltd5854]

@@SashaYanshin what about interactive broker ..?

[@SashaYanshin]

@@rosepetalsfashionltd5854 Yep and Inveractive Investor although IBKR is probably the better option - think I took the question to mean primarily whether it's possible to sign up to US brokerages and didn't give a good enough answer the first time around. :)

[@rosepetalsfashionltd5854]

@@SashaYanshin not to worry, I always enjoy your videos they are full of very good information. Thank you.

[@sergest-amand1164]

Beware people, trailing stop order rules vary hugely from one brokerage platform to another (at least it's the case in Canada).

[@SashaYanshin]

Vary on the definition or execution? There is some variance with the platforms I have used where some might do a % based trail while others do a fixed one, but these are usually pretty obvious when you're using them - maybe this is different in other countries!

[@sergest-amand1164]

@@SashaYanshin BMO's pltfrm recalculates the selling price (according to a % I defined, max 20%) each time a new high is reached. If the stock price is between 5 and 25, it takes a variation greater than 49 cents for activation, if the price is between 25 and 50, it takes a variation greater than 1$, etc. This is not in real time but once a day, price at closing time. At Disnat, you place an increment of the price at the time you place the order and, nearly in real time, the increment moves upwards at any new high reached since you placed the order.

[@SashaYanshin]

@@sergest-amand1164 Thanks for letting me know - definitely an odd way of implementing it if it's only done on closing prices and with the caveats!

[@sergest-amand1164]

​@@SashaYanshin I just checked, yes it's still the closing higher price that is criteria. And oh i forgot, there's also this: if price is lower than 5$ per share, you CAN'T place a trailing stop.

Sorry dude, couldnt follow this.
