 “Observing that he had not put in a stop-loss order I spoke to him about it and he told me that the break hadn't fairly begun and he wasn't going to be shaken out by any one-point reaction.

Thank you for taking your time to read my post. Today, let’s consider an important and practical issue on stop orders. What is a stop order? What is special about them? Why do traders need stop orders?  

Stop Loss is an order placed by a trader on a trading platform to sell a security when it reaches a certain price. A stop-loss order is designed to limit an investor’s loss on a position in a security. It is also known as a “stop order” or “stop-market order.” 

Is breakeven a treatment from losing?

Hello dear friends.

I think that each of you has placed a position in the breakeven zone at least once in the life. However, may be not all of you know this method of capital management. Let’s start from the definition.

Breakeven is a level at which you place stop loss so that in case of its execution a position will be closed with zero profit and loss.

You can often hear the following expression: “to place a position in the breakeven zone +1 pip”. It means that when the stop loss order is executed, a particular position will be closed with the profit of 1 pip.
