Short DAX at 7740

Quote from RedDuke:

I am not sure about stop limits since I do not use them. I have mine as stop market orders, so it always gets me out sometimes with small slippage. Obviously on days like today you can easily get killed with market orders.

I would guess that if you have stop limit on exchange, and the price trades through it, you might still be in position.

Also some exchanges do not even support stop market, what they do instead is stop limit with very large brackets, so it acts like stop market.

This morning was incredible to watch, and I guess for brave ones to trade.

Thanks again redduke,

but what I'm trying to get at is if it jumps over your resting order, which such wide spreads, that it does NOT trade thru or touch your order, let it be a limit order or a stop loss order.
Will it be filled at all?
 
Another morning where I could not trade. I just could not believe how thin the book got and stayed and the spread. I just looked at YM and ER and they look slightly better.
