+1000% in a couple of weeks

Quote from Ghost of Cutten:

2008, several times. Lots of shorts blew up on the day after the short sale financials ban - it was options expiration day too, limit up bid on the open (a little over 60 S&P points gap move), and far higher gaps on financial stocks (like 20-100+% gaps).

best OPG short ever, i wish i had real money to play with that day

I trade through CMC markets. One can chose commission + lower leverage where one is guaranteed stops. Or just spread and higher leverage but unlimited losses in theory.
For stocks i think there is always commision but not index.

how can stops be guaranteed? do you trade against the broker? what if the stock corresponding to CFD gaps down 10% overnight and you had 2% stop on your position, does it always get filled? is not brokers losing money in this case?

I don´t know. They take the risk if the client pay for it perhaps. I think that is what they mean but i use the "unlimited losses"-account.
