GEMFOREX Stop Level | Conditions for Scalping, Stop/Limit Orders

GEMFOREX

I will explain the stop level of GEMFOREX.

If the stop level is too wide, it will be disadvantageous for traders who aim for profit with small price movements such as scalping.

Stop level is an important factor in forex trading, so please learn about stop level carefully in this article.

What you can learn in this article is,
  • What is Stop level
  • Is the GEMFOREX stop level wide or narrow?
  • How to check the stop level of GEMFOREX
  • How about other broker stop levels?

What is Stop Level

The stop level is the minimum from the current price when placing a limit order or stop order, or when setting a stop loss or take profit at the same time as the order.

It is a price range constraint that indicates how far you must be.


For example, suppose you are trading USDJPY and the current price is 105.00.

Assuming that the stop level is 5.0 pips, the take profit setting must be 5.0 pips or higher, that is, 105.051 or higher when placing a buy order.

In other words, you cannot place an order at a price below 105.50.

This is the same to limit / stop limit orders.

The stop level is uniquely defined by each forex broker, it depends on which broker you use.

Should the stop level be wide or narrow?

It is advantageous to have a narrow stop level rather than a wide one.

For example, we may set additional stop loss or take profit settings for an order that has already been entered, or change the settings.

This is the case when you have an unrealized loss, or when the unrealized profit swells and you are confident that the profit will be fixed to some extent.

Especially when you have an unrealized loss and fortunately the price is returning, you can eliminate the loss if you can close at least at the quoted price (entry price), but if the stop level is wide, you have to close position with loss at a distance from the quoted price, or you have to wait until your position turns positive and you have unrealized gains.

The narrower the stop level, the more advantageous it is because it can be set freely.

Is the stop level of GEMFOREX wide or narrow?

The stop level of GEMFOREX is rather wide.

You have to pay attention when setting limit / stop orders and limits.

Scalping is not prohibited in GEMFOREX.

I think that scalping that aims for a fine price range in the range market is at the level of the allowable range.

There are some precautions regarding scalping with GEMFOREX, and although it is not prohibited, you need to apply in advance for high-frequency trades such as making 10 or more payments within 5 minutes.

GEMFOREX also offers its own EA (Automatic Trading Tool), but you need to be especially careful with EA that does such a scalping trading.

EURUSD2.0 pips
USDJPY2.0 pips
GBPUSD2.6 pips
XAUUSD5.0 pips

What to do if the stop level is wide

A wide stop level means that you can only set a limit far away, so if you want to close a position near the ordered price, you will have to manually close it.

It doesn’t matter if you have enough unrealized gains beyond the stop level.

Forex brokers with zero stop levels

Some forex brokers offer zero stop levels (0.0 pips).

If the stop level is zero, quote settlement is possible, and scalping with a small price range is also possible.

The following are forex brokers with zero stop levels or a fairly narrow stop level.
