Hello Clarence, A very good topic. Let me begin by reposting a previous response on the subject of Conditional Orders. "To: William W. Dwyer, Jr. who wrote (2660) From: Stryker Tuesday, Jun 15 1999 11:00AM ET Hello Bill, The "Stop Order" [and Conditional Order functionalities] can be extremely important capabilities. I will attempt to summarize their operational functionality, and their limitations, below. CyBerBroker does accept, through the CyBerTrader and CyBerT platforms, traditional, market held (meaning orders held on the order book of the specialist in a particular security on the floor of an exchange) Stop orders for securities listed on the New York and American exchanges. Also, Good Till Cancelled (GTC) orders are accepted for securities on these exchanges. Adding this capability to CyBerX is presently in the works. Currently the NASDAQ Stock Market is unable to accept either Stop or GTC orders. This situation was one of the core reasons behind the development of the software solutions present within CyBerTrader, CyBerX, and CyBerT. The Stop-Loss features present within the software platforms available to CyBerBroker customers are powerful tools. It is important to note here that these features are FUNCTIONS OF THE SOFTWARE PLATFORM ONLY, AND DO NOT REPRESENT ANY TYPE OF AN INSTRUCTION OR ORDER THAT MAY BE FORWARDED BY CYBERBROKER TO THE MARKET ON YOUR BEHALF. Any time the [software-based] Stop-Loss or Conditional Order functions are used they are subject to the same potentials for failure present with any use of the software, PLUS there are additional points of failure relevant only to these particular functions that could adversely affect their operation (bad ticks being reported by the markets are one possible cause). With all this being said let me add that these functions have been highly successful since their release. With proper care and discretion these tools may offer a wide array of utility for our customers. Therefore, fully understanding these features by reading the User's Manual, and also availing of the resources present with the Trader Support people are highly recommended before attempting to employ these features. I hope that this has helped to answer the questions of both you and others on the thread. Let me know if I may expand on any topics covered here." This is all very leading edge technology. One of our main goals is to ensure that all customers are aware of the risks to which they are subject through its use. As we continue to innovate our ideal is to decrease the possible technology risk exposures, possibly to the point where the software functioning rivals that of a market specialist-held order. I hope that this helps! Sincerely, Mark K. Stryker CEO CyBerBroker, Inc.
