Re: STKS: Stop Loss Orders not allowed??



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

I believe there are three types of OTC stocks, but that has nothing to
do with stop orders.

'OTC' Stocks are either:

1) part of the Nasdaq Stock Market (eg, MSFT, INTC);
2) part of the OTC Bulletin Board (SJKI);
3) on the Pink Sheets

I do not believe there is any official rule about stop orders on Nasdaq
stocks; it is up to the broker's discretion. They can decide to take the
order for MSFT, but refuse to take it on EFII, even though both are NSM
stocks.
