11. How can I use a Limit Order?
Limit orders are commonly used to enter a market and to take profit at predefined levels. Limit orders to buy are placed below
the current market price and are executed when the Ask price hits or breaches the price level specified. (If placed above the
current market price, the order is filled instantly at the best available price below or at the limit price.) Limit orders to sell are
placed above the current market price and are executed when the Bid price breaches the price level specified. (If placed below
the current market price, the order is filled instantly at the best available price above or at the limit price.) When a limit order
is triggered, it is filled as soon as possible at the price obtainable on the market. Note that the price at which your order is filled
may differ from the price you set for the order if the opening price of the market is better than your limit price.
How can I use a Stop Order?
Forex Stop orders are commonly used to exit positions and to protect investments in the event that the market moves against
an open position. Stop orders to sell are placed below the current market level and are executed when the Bid price hits or
breaches the price level specified. Stop orders to buy are placed above the current market level and are executed when the Ask
price hits or breaches the price level specified.
StockHit World supports a variety of stop orders, including Stop if Bid and Stop if Offered Orders. Stop if Bid orders are
commonly used to buy the applicable currency pair in a rising market. If the price level specified in the order is actually Bid on
the market, the order will be filled at the price offered by the market maker. On Forex, we recommend the use of Stop if Bid
orders only to buy positions. The use of Stop if Bid to sell Forex positions can result in positions being prematurely closed if a
market event causes the Bid/Ask spread to temporarily widen. Stop if Offered orders are commonly used to sell the applicable
currency pair in a falling market. If the price level specified is actually offered in the market, the order will be filled at the price
bid by market maker. On Forex, we recommend the use of Stop if Offered orders only to sell positions. The use of Stop if Offered
orders to buy Forex positions can result in positions being prematurely closed if a market event causes the Bid/Ask spread to
temporarily widen.
What are Related Trade Orders?
Related, or contingent, orders are trade orders linked together to create more complex trading strategies. There are several
types of contingent orders, the most popular of which are If Done and O.C.O. orders. If Done orders (also known as slave orders)
where a slave, or subordinate, order only becomes active if the first one is executed. One Cancels the Other (O.C.O.) is an order
sequence where the execution of one order cancels the other. O.C.O. orders are often used to place both a stop loss and a profit
taking (limit) order around a position – the first of the orders to execute will automatically cancel the other.
What is a ticket fee threshold?
The minimum amount that a client can trade without incurring a ticket fee. For trades below this threshold, a small ticket fee
of USD 10 is added to the trade to cover administration costs.
