You can put in stop losses at DLJDirect. It has to be done over the phone, but you can change or cancel them online. A few other brokerages too.

Yes, stop losses are OK on most, but not all NASDAQ stocks. Sometimes it depends on the broker you are using. I use Fidelity and generally have no problem unless you are trying to play with w new issue that is jumping around a lot. jim

Just curious about stop losses, can you put stops on Nasdaq stocks
in the states. I'm in Canada and was told no brokerages here
can put stop losses on Nasdaq stocks. thks


Etrade and Datek allow me to place Stops on Nasdaq stocks. Etrade also allows stops on listed stocks, and options.

I'm about to start trading with Mytrack, and they appear to offer Stops as well.

Note that with Etrade, if you use a Stop-Limit, they require you to set the same price for the stop trigger and limit price.
