Thanks Blowfish
Yes you're right, I feel a bit of an idiot now, as I thought my stop was a stop limit order, not a plain old stop order. My broker says stop limit orders are not allowed on that exchange, but I'm going to find out for sure if this is true.
As for slippage with the
Dax, 4 points was my worst but happened several times and it was for this reason I moved over to the
stoxx.
You are right, I need to also find out where my orders are held, as the scenario you had would be a nightmare.
Thanks again
