Thanks for the info. In my own mind, I just can't understand why the NASDAQ/OTC etc can not do a stop loss, but the archaic NYSE old fashion paper order bills etc does, or then again why the extension of the daytrading hours is now on hold until after percentages replace the Pound Shilling/Dollar Fraction type system (Of course I was in Britain the year they switch from a 12 based monetary coinage system of Old, to the decimal 10 penney, system like ours, interesting making change both ways. Anyway, NASDAQ computerized system ought to allow anything, formulas, etc., if the institutions can do it, until the limits ae put in, why should we be able to do so at least with Level 2 type trading software etc., and play these technicals out?
