Gox's new trading engine and all of the upcoming exchanges (ex, Coinsetter) are completely unnecessary given the total volume on all current exchanges.
What a magnificent engine this is that a trader can't even put a protective stop loss, not to mention a trailing stop!
Gox will still maintain the lead [...]
unless someone who has experience in exchange / brokerage business finally sets up a quality exchange. If this happens Gox and others will die in 6 months.
Don't you think that the only reason for
BTC exchanges not to offer this facility is because they're all playing there own markets? I can't understand it otherwise.
Maybe it's because they are playing their own game, maybe it's because they cannot get their engine more sophisticated due to their poor coding skills. Maybe ... I don't know.
I am just plain angry. I saw the recent bottoming at 121.25, and I didn't trade. I wanted to go long, but ... what if the price disrupted over night? - then I wouldn't have been protected. I am not happy Gox.
Do other BTC exchanges have stop loss functionality? If yes, which ones?
