    Gap Up/Down Risk-- How to Manage It

    Welcome, I have the same problem. I was thinking that we need a product similar to a Put that covers only overnight gaps. (one-night-put) So, at the end of the day, you pay a small premium and assure that your position is safe and you can sleep deep. The current bid/ask spreads of options...

    What kind of indicators can be applied to a new stock with only 6 bars of data?

    Even 6 days of ID-data is not enough to test your strategy. There are so many stocks around. I'd stick to them or just wait. Cheers :)

    Hi, no, but I think it could be good if my software puts a stop loss into the market immediately after entering a position. Especially when trading baskets, it is important that this works well and accurate. Sometimes I have up to 20 open positions (different stocks) and in this situation it...

    Thanks for the info. Is the volume and the bid/ask spread comparable, too? Especially, if you look at AUD, CAD, etc.? Thanks Cheers :)
