Good comments but I’ve personally never understood the Stop Loss idea. So let’s say 100 Private Investors all publish a stop loss of 270 while a share is at 300 & there are a collective £1m of stop losses at current value but the brokers know that the share price should be valued at 330. If people are advertising they will sell what brokers see as £1.1m value for £900k why wouldn’t they trigger the stop losses to grab an extra circ £200k on the way up? To me it’s like showing your hand in Poker before the game started?
