can somebody here confirm that stops sometimes would not executed? i had same experience two times in the last couple of days....i assume if the stop price is triggered a market order should be created..today i waited ca 1 minute after stop price was triggered but no execution was done...so i slipped 8 points into negative....have i missunderstand something?



Stops not executing,
that is something new,
I've never had that problem,
and would not want to.

Are you sure you are placing
your stops correctly ?

Not to talk down on you,
but if buying then a sell stop is chosen from the the sell side.
if selling then a buy stop is chosen from the buy side.

Stop 507, 3 hours old..look at bitcoin wisdom and you'll see that in these 3 hours the price moved over the stop...490 to 510 22:39-22:42 CET...price was not long above 507.. that's why i thought that the stop doesn't trigger a MKT order....am i wrong?
