What is stop-loss and take profit?

A stop- loss order is an order set to trade a particular instrument once the instruments hits at a specific price. A stop-loss is an important risk management tool that can help limit losses on trades. For instance, you could request a stop-loss is set 10% beneath the price at which you bought an instrument – this, in normal market situations will limit your potential loss to 10%.

 

A take profit order is an order set to trade a specific instrument once the instrument hits at a specific price. Take profit orders give traders the opportunity to lock in profit by closing a trade as soon as the market is at a target price.

 

Kindly note that take profit and stop loss orders are subject to the best price available in the market and therefore your desirable limit order may not necessarily be filled at the exact price.

Investing in CFDs involves a high degree of risk that you will lose your money due to the use of leverage, particularly in fast moving markets, where a relatively small movement in the price can lead to a proportionately larger movement in the value of your investment. This can result in loses that exceed the funds in your account. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and you should seek independent advice if necessary.
