Stop limits are not marketable, they're limit orders. When the stop (trigger price) is hit, the order triggers a limit order. Your original question was about marketable limit orders which is something different. Anyway, a market order will always execute faster and more reliably as it is always...

There's no difference between the two, they're both marketable orders. In both cases you will be filled immediately. A stop limit is something entirely different and even if that were the case, the market order will be filled first.

The Fed is still running off their balance sheet at almost 50billion/month, so I'd say Powell is making a concession on rates to do what he thinks is more urgent; and he can do it in the background where no one is paying attention because everyone is staring at interest rates. I'm expecting the...

If you thought the company was worth buying at $90, and your thoughts are still the same, then it should be an even better bargain at $75. In light of that, it would be stupid not to average in.

Judging by the quality of 'analysis' in this thread, pretty much everyone? :P

Youre calling a bear market in the absence of a bear market. Id say pride, not patience, will soon reward you by relieving you of all your cash.

Lol Kids these days...

Bear trap day today. Would not be surprised to see a close in the high 2760's.

I don't understand this reasoning at all. If anything, breakout plays are pretty tight and 'less' risky - if the stock breaks, you ride it with a close stop, if it fails, you bail. So you had a bunch that failed today... and the broad market is down... it's bound to happen. 3 out of your 4...

Hey b1 looks like you lost half of the contributors in this thread when the 'BIG BEAR MARKET that we were DEFINITELY in' ceased to exist. The same characters that were forecasting sustained downmoves and ranting about bear market catalysts and 200 day ma crosses and high percentages of more...

And you'll be the last to know too.

Agreed. Looking for a quick test of 2500 and some stabilization before a sustained move up.

If your only intention is to filter these trades out, that should be pretty simple. Ive had to do that in the past and it was an easy fix... but i cant remember how. I'll repost here if i can think of it... what software are you using? The likes of you and i are not going to compel the sec to...

A few of these types of threads floating around recently. Ignore the trades. They were trades executed probably in a block at the previous days close and are indicative of nothing. They are supposed to be reported within a half hour of the next days open but I often see them get peppered in on...

I've never heard of that. As far as I know, only block trades and trades that are executed off of an electronic exchange are exempt from immediate reporting requirements - but they still do have to report within specified time frames.

Good riddance.

Lol. Piker.

Premature. But I'm rooting for you anyway.

Not going to happen. At least not in the next 2 years. Mnuchin has already prepped the Presidents working group and the 6 heads of the country's largest banks to ensure both liquidity and support, which stinks to high heaven of presidential manipulation. We've seen the bottom already. Mark my...

The fallacy of trading only using technical indicators is that you're disconnected from everything that is actually relevant to what moves the market: ... Tomorrow, the Secretary (Mnuchin) will convene a call with the President's Working Group on financial markets (colloquially referred to as...
