The opinions expressed in these forums do not represent those of C2, and any discussion of profit/loss is not indicative of future performance or success. There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. You should read, understand, and consider the Risk Disclosure Statement that is provided by your broker before you consider trading. Most people who trade lose money.
I’m working on automating signals via URLs. It drives me nuts that I can’t just say SELL 5. For example if I was long 2 and I said STO 5 it would throw up an error. Arrghh!
In fact in 13 years of trading throughout Europe and Asia in all major asset classes the only place I’ve ever heard of BTC STC etc is here at C2. I am told its an old American concept.
Either way it has no meaning in todays world where people use multiple executing and prime brokers.
I agree, C2 can’t handle when you are in position with X units and want to reverse the trade by Y units where Y>X.
I agree. Needs addressing
Sorry guys, this will not change, at least not at the core functionality of the site.*
We require “to open” and “to close” attached to all orders because C2 isn’t like a regular brokerage account. On C2, you have people following you. They may join you, or un-join you, at various moments in time. Thus for everyone’s safety, it is vital that orders have a “to open” or “to close” parameter attached to them, so that when people join or un-join, their trades are placed in the right directions.

Ok, makes sense.
So, if someone joins as an autotrader mid trade, will C2 enter a position automatically at the market price??
