Stop order: moving instrument into pies

Hello,

basic question but I couldn’t find the answer… If I set a stop limit order on a stock (i.e. invest not cfd), if I move by importing that instrument into a pie is the stop order removed?

If it is, what is the best way to protect an investment in a pie?

Thx

As it is an open order, the pie will not let you import the shares. You will have to first cancel the order. Typically, the pie feature would be used for holdings you would like to keep for a long time.

Thanks, some of my “core” positions jumped up so I wanted to protect that profit but I appreciate your clear answer. Thx

no problem. sometimes I see the same behaviour with my own positions and know they will correct back again not long after so I sell a significant portion and then buy back in once the price lowers.
