Title: Stop loss orders possible at Bitstamp? Post by: CoinArtist on November 09, 2013, 05:01:02 AM Is it possible to set up something like that?
Not really sure how to sleep otherwise. :D Title: Re: Stop loss orders possible at Bitstamp? Post by: MAbtc on November 09, 2013, 06:21:51 AM Nope. I wish I could place a stop loss. Can't on Bitstamp, BTC-E or Gox as far as I know. Maybe on Bitfinex? Anyone know? You can trade with leverage there... maybe you can place stop loss order.

Title: Re: Stop loss orders possible at Bitstamp? Post by: Sevvero on November 09, 2013, 11:29:16 AM Get the QtBitcoinTrader software. It will allow you to set a stop loss order at specific price. It doesn't allow percentage drops yet though. Maybe in the future. They had a thread on bitcointalk as well!

Title: Re: Stop loss orders possible at Bitstamp? Post by: Maciek on November 10, 2013, 10:51:26 PM Stop Loss
If the current rate is lower than 300 USD per 1BTC: execute: sell ALL BITCOINS at 290USD So When the price collapse I don't loose money the same is possilbe with USD: if USD collapse I may buy more BTC :) Title: Re: Stop loss orders possible at Bitstamp?

It a sign to the market that says "just take my money" Seriously they can see stop orders waiting on the order book and they use low liquidity of overnight markets to go stop hunting! Also stops do not guarantee a price that they sell at, unless you buy stop insurance (a guaranteed stop) which costs a fortune, so nobody does. |
