A Wide range of orders to maximize investment opportunities
To help you capture market opportunities, apart from normal limit order, we offer an additional choice of order types for timely and effective execution.
Pre-Opening Session At-Auction Limit Order
You can place an At-Auction Limit Order during the pre-opening session. Input limit price of unfilled orders that do not deviate from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange requirement will be converted to normal limit orders at the input limit price and carried forward to the Continuous Trading Session (at 10am).
Market Order
You can execute an order at the prevailing market price by placing a Market Order without setting a limit price, but just an order quantity. The order will be executed at the prevailing market price at the time of execution.
Stop Loss Order
You can manage your stock portfolio risk efficiently in adverse market conditions with a Stop-Loss Order. Once your pre-set Stop Loss Price is reached, the order will be triggered and sent to the Stock Exchange for execution. You will also be required to set the Lowest Selling Price, in which the Stop Loss Limit Order will not be executed.
For details of each order, please visit our Online Securities Trading FAQ http://www.standardchartered.com.hk/cb/ibkg/ost/faq/index_oss.html
Closing Auction Session At-Auction Limit Order
You can place an At-Auction Limit Order during the order input period of the closing auction session. Outstanding Enhanced Limit Orders from the continuous trading session will be carried forward to the Closing Auction Session (at 4pm) as At-Auction Limit Orders.
