Excellent content! Just made my 9th withdrawal from the market! I can't tell you how glad I am that I got into trading after being introduced to it last year. Yeah risk management is KEY!
Dude you're Killing it! In trading I believe your #1 priority should be risk management. There are 1000s of strategies out there but the real difference between a profitable trader and a non profitable one will be how they manage their risk during trades. Learning how to let your winning trades run and how to cut your losses short will significantly increase your chances of profitability in the long run

I still can't figure it out. there must be more videos about this topic that explain selling when things go up, and buying when they go down. At least thats been my tactic since Oct 31 bull market started. I don't sell stocks that go down, unless I am desperate about something, such as the video mentioned advantages and disadvantages.
But how do you set a timer after you enter? Maybe a conditional order that fires contingent on you buying.... But again, how to match this timing to when you buy?
Can a stop limit be added for profit? Stop at 100 limit 150 so would sell the best price between 1010 and 150? Or the max it reaches to; let’s say it reached to 140 only. Or the order will be for 150 and if it’s not reached the shares won’t be sold? Thanks
A stop-limit order typically ensures that you get the price you set, but it doesn't guarantee that your trade will go through. As a result, you could be left holding shares worth far less than you anticipated. Employ a stop-limit order if you are willing to hold the shares if you can't get your desired price. ^MF
so im struggling to understand the advantage of a stop limit besides the uniquness of saving you from a afterhours dip which triggers a sell on a standard stop order. Besides that, is a stop the most common way to protect you from a loss?
One of the reasons for using a stop limit order might be to address the situation of a gap down rally. If the stock gaps down below the limit and bounces back, the stop wouldn't fill at the lower price. ^BW
So for 24 hour markets, a stop order is pointless right? From what I’m understanding, the stop order prevents large losses from when the market is down and the stock price drops
If you have a sell stop order on a stock and it opens substantially lower, the order will be sent to the market and compete with other orders for a fill. In this scenario, the stop order may not prevent large losses from occurring. ^MF
i'm having an issue with placing a stop loss to mitigate loss and also placing a sell limit to collect profit at a certain % at the same time. I get a notification about having orders for more shares than i have. Any way to make one automatically close when the other one is filled?
Market makers and other traders cannot see a stop order since it simply triggers a market order. So they can be good for large orders since market makers will sometimes employ "stop hunts" to help increase liquidity. A stop hunt is where the market makers will manipulate the price so as to trigger the filling of stop-loss orders if they see a bunch of them clustered together. But these sneaky bastards are good at figuring out where stop orders are likely to be based on other factors, and if they're motivated enough to try and sweep them out, they're going to find them.
We assume you mean the distance a market order can go. A market order is set to trigger when the price is hit however if the stock opens lower than the set order the fill can be lower than the price set in the order. Market orders can be placed a percentage below a price point and that percentage is up to you. ^BC
Anyone could teach me what is a LIMIT PRICE and STOP PRICE when I place an order? I know LIMIT is the price must be higher than LIMIT if I am correct, but what is a STOP?
In a limit order you specify how high you are willing to buy. In a buy stop order, you are wanting to hit a specified higher price (such as a breakout above a resistance area) before you want to be filled on the trade. ^CH

They didn't help me for crap.

same
Thank you! Been looking for a very simple explanation!
Thank you!! I watched 5 other videos about this topic and was still confused until you explained it! Thank you for using visual references!!
Thank you for this. Studying for series 65 and this is the best explanation of stop limit orders I've seen.
Great video! Informative and short video straight to the point. Personally a simple stop order works for me.
finally, a good explanation! thanks
Thanks, I finally get it… after hours was not something I thought about

Best explanation of the differences. Thank you
would of preferred a tutorial on the Schwab website actually placing a trailing stop.
This was an extremely well explained video,
Thank you for sharing
I needed to see this💯
Wonderful video, thank you!
Thank you, for this easy to understand video! ❤
Great Explanation, Thanks
Great explination! Thanks.
Thank you Charles Schwab!
Very well explained !
Thank you !
wow cool thanks for sharing
finally someone made it simple )
Using timer for the limit is smarter. If the patern changes while you aren't watching, you don't have to enter it.
But how do you set a timer after you enter? Maybe a conditional order that fires contingent on you buying.... But again, how to match this timing to when you buy?
After submitting an order you can change it to add a timer if wanted. ^CH
@@CharlesSchwab thanks! I see its a new feature now!
Thank you 🙏
god video 😊
Does this only apply to prices going down, buy or selling?
Thanks a lot. So, doi need to set up two stop limit order if i wanted to sell it no less than $x and sell when it goes up to certain point?
That could be accomplished using an OCO bracket order, with a Limit order to sell at the target, and a Stop Limit to sell if the price goes down. ^BW
wow cool

The trading platform is the thinkorswim Desktop software platform. ^BW
can you set a stop to sell higher than what you bought it for?
Yes, you can setup potential exit orders above and below the entry price. ^MF

What does Distance for Market mean and it has percentage ?
Does it have to be 100%
How long does it take ?
We assume you mean the distance a market order can go.

Basically there are no guarantees in life.
In other words, if you own a volatile stock, you better have your eyeballs on it all the time. These orders guarantee nothing.
Made a huge mistake in trading, now I know fully what a stop limit order is smh. Wow lol.
Who is this spokesperson? He looks familiar to me--has he been in other commercials or acting gigs or anything?
This is Kevin Horner, a Schwab Coach. ^MF
it is the same concept for bitcoins?
Stop and stop-limit orders are order types used on a majority of trading platforms however not all platforms offer bitcoin trading.^BC
Do it work the same for buying as it do for selling?
This video is does not make a lot of sense without mentioning aftermarket and premarket hours and trades.
