Limit and Stop Orders

Limit and Stop orders allow you to set up longer-term instructions to sell your shares. Only whole share sales can be supported, so this won't apply to fractional holdings.

Limit Orders

A limit order allows you to set a limit price, or the price at which you're willing to sell your shares if the current market price were to rise.

Your order will only be executed at your limit price or higher.

To set up a limit order, please follow the instructions below:

1. Select the share you want to sell
2. Tap Sell
3. Tap Market order at the bottom left of the screen
4. Tap Limit order
5. Enter the price you'd like to sell your shares at and tap Continue
6. Enter the number of whole shares you'd like to sell at this price
7. Tap Review order
8. If you're happy with the instruction, tap Confirm

Stop Orders

A stop order allows you to set the stop price, or the price at which you want to trigger a market sell order for your shares if the price were to fall.

To set up a stop order, please follow the instructions below:

1. Select the share you want to sell
2. Tap Sell
3. Tap Market order at the bottom left of the screen
4. Tap Stop order
5. Enter the price you'd like to sell your shares at and tap Continue
6. Enter the number of whole shares you'd like to sell at this price
7. Tap Review order
8. If you're happy with the instruction, tap Confirm
