I'm going to help out needy prostitutes by paying their rent.

I am going to be Scrooge McDuck. Swimming in my money bin and pissing in old ladies' faces.

Oh, man! You lost me after the first paragraph. Honestly, I'm not even going to read all that ****. I don't care what it says. You clearly took things way too personally and blew them way out of proportion. All I have to say is I'm sorry for whatever wrong strings I pulled with you. Now get off...

Actually, I think I'm being very humorous in my disregard of self-important pricks everywhere, real or imagined. You need to differentiate between dead-pan sarcasm and lack of humor.

Nope. I've been using the word "amid," not the shortened version of some self-important prick's name. And I'm not going to watch my back. If he want's to kiss my ass, he can do so without warning. I won't mind.

A stop market order is the same as a triggered market order. It turns into a market order when the price reaches your stop-loss. I would use a market order just in case because it eliminates an extra step and it also prevents the scenario you described in your OP - namely the order failing to...

Use TradeTriggers. If LAST trade is equal to or less then your stop-loss, then activate a sell order at market price. Your order will execute after the very first trade that posts below your stop loss. There is no way to trade within the gap but you can at least exit at the first available moment.

My biggest reason for getting into trading was to AVOID being chained to cubicles, schedules, deadlines, bosses, clients, and all the bull**** associated with rat-racing. I trade from my patio, sipping long island iced teas, looking at the ocean, taking breaks when I want and for as long as I...

I live in Southern California. The sun shines every day here. Why am I not a millionaire yet?

You guys are right. My previous methodology has been guided by this guy: Clearly, he's not very reliable.
