Thank you, i wasn't aware of this, although i did browse their documentation. Cheers.

That's a good point. Thank you for sharing your insights. Regards

@Scataphagos thanks for replying. I understand i would want to get out of an eventful situation fast and i don't have a problem with that per se. I was wondering mostly if in such an event market orders are filled at any price. I.e, you're long on X being traded at $100, an event happens stock...

Hi I was browsing the forums to try and find how what kind of stop order would be best for an hypothetical flash crash, in this case, for the IBKR TWS platform. I'm aware of stop limit orders, but a limit order once the stop is hit is not guaranteed execution if the price dives (or spikes)...

Where would you suggest a beginner to focus his/her attentions on, considering the vast assortment of indicators? Let me rephrase it, what would you (and other posters here) consider the bare minimum set of indicators to reliably provide you a baseline of information about a trade, its...
