Hello,
I just found out about the NFA rule that went into effect last month regarding traders being no longer able to place stop loss or limit orders with US brokers?
However, I read a lot of controversial responses to this announcement from different sources, and I’m looking to “set the record straight” as to what exactly has changed.
From what I’ve gathered, it seems that this rule affects [B]some[/B] platforms but not others, which I don’t really understand why.
I’m currently demo-trading with MB Trading’s Navigator, and from what I’ve read, this new rule doesn’t apply to the Navigator? All I know is, I’ve been able to place all different kinds of orders with the demo …
Unless I’m mistake again, it seems like MT4 is one platform affected by this rule?
Can someone explain why these rules only apply to some platforms? And are OCOs and TTOs basically the same thing? Were they specifically developed as a way around the new rule? I started demo-trading shortly[B] after[/B] this rule went into effect, so I’m afraid I have no basis of comparison.
More than anything else, I’m just concerned as whether or not I’ll be able to use stop/limit entry orders with MB Trading’s Navigator on a live account.
Thanks!
