How to set the system to only place order after triggering a price?


wfred

Question

Let’s say US30 is at 33000 now. I would like to enter a long trade 33000 but not now only when 33100 is hit. So how to set an order that when price hits 33100 it will place my buy order at 33000?

Hope someone can advice.

Thank you.

Hi @wfred,

If I understand your question correctly, you can't place an order to place another order. If you are going long you would buy at lower price so 33000 and sell at higher price 33100.

Feel free to add some clarifications.

Hi Arvin,

thanks for your reply. Actually, you got me wrong. What I meant was, I wanted to go long at 33000 but not only until price hits 33100. So if now price is 33050 I can just queue at 33000 but it doesn’t fulfill my criteria to go long yet. So I’m asking is there a way to set the system to only place my queue to buy at 33000 when the price hits 33100 or above. 

Thank you.

Hi @wfred

You can set an alert for when the price crosses 33100. Then place an order to buy at your specified level after receiving the alert. Unfortunately there is no other way to go about this. 

All the best,

Wilfred

    • Sainsburys full year earnings and Unilever’s first quarter trading update both say the same thing, UK consumers are in for higher prices. The war in Ukraine, supply chain issues and the effects of ongoing Covid all to blame.      
    • US Dollar (DXY) Daily Price and Analysis US Q1 GDP may stall the greenback’s advance. A 20-year high nears for the US dollar. The multi-month US dollar rally continues with the greenback printing a fresh high today ahead of the first look at US Q1 GDP at 12.30 GMT. The US dollar basket (DXY) has been boosted by renewed weakness in the Euro and the Japanese Yen, as investors move from lower-yielding to higher-yielding currencies, while safe-haven flows continue to benefit the greenback. The US growth release later in the session is expected to show a sharp slowdown from the robust Q4 figure of 6.9%. The markets are currently pricing in growth of just 1% for the first three months of this year, with the slowdown mainly due to a reduction in inventory accrual over the quarter. This release is unlikely to move the greenback, unless there is a large miss or beat, as the Fed believe that 2022 US growth will be robust enough to let them tighten monetary policy sharply without damaging the economy. The latest US Core PCE data – the Fed’s preferred inflation reading – is released on Friday and this may have more effect on the US dollar than today’s GDP data. For all market moving economic data and events, see the DailyFX Calendar. The ongoing US dollar rally has been aided by weakness across a range of G7 currencies including the Euro, the Japanese Yen, and the British Pound. The Euro continues to battle with lowly growth expectations, exacerbated by energy concerns, the British Pound is mired by weak economic data, while the Japanese Yen is in freefall as the BoJ continues with its ultra-loose monetary policy.   The US dollar continues to press higher and looks set to break above 103.96, the March 2020 high. Above here the US dollar would be back at levels last seen nearly two decades ago. The March resistance will likely hold in the short-term, especially with month-end portfolio rebalancing at the end of the week, but US dollar strength is set to continue in the months ahead.
