cTrader – Limit and Stop Orders Video Transcript.

00:00
You can create limit and stop orders by opening the create order
00:05
window and selecting your order type
00:08
slightly faster with creating limit and stop orders is to right-click inside
00:11
the chart for symbol
00:13
at around the entry rate you want and then click the sell or buy options
00:16
the stop order and limit order options that you’ll find here all change depending
00:20
on where you click on the chart relative to the spot price
00:23
so clicking below the spot price as we’ve just done
00:27
will display buy limit and sell stop options while clicking above the spot
00:31
price will display sell limit and buy stpp options
00:34
let’s go ahead and click Buy stop when the order window opens
00:38
the order take you clicked will be selected as well as the correct symbol
00:42
the rate at which clicked and your most recently entered volume
00:45
you probably won’t have clicked on the rate exactly where you wanted to
00:49
so adjust the price here accordingly. If you choose to set an expiry date
00:53
the limit or stop order will automatically be cancelled if the entry rate
00:56
has not been hit by the date and time set here
00:59
so in our case the stop order will automatically be cancelled
01:02
if it hasn’t been executed by the 23rd of October at 4:30
01:07
finally set your stop loss and take profit. The values below the rate you’ve set will
01:12
automatically update to show you what you profit or loss will be
01:15
if you stop loss or take profit are hit first as a percentage of your balance
01:19
and then pips in your base currency to confirm the order
01:23
click buy or sell
01:25
the order will appear in the trade watch orders tab
01:30
and on the chart for the corresponding symbol as long as the orders option is ticked
01:34
in the chart view settings
01:36
to make changes to the order click on the cog icon in the order line
01:40
double click on the order line in trade watch or on the chart or right click
01:43
the order line
01:44
and select Modify order
01:49
apply your changes
01:50
by clicking modify. To cancel the order press Delete from the modify order screen
01:56
or right click on the order line in trade watch and select Delete
01:59
order
