Hey, traders. I'm Mike [? Ovacena, ?] Senior Content Producer here at TD Ameritrade. In this video, I'm going to show you how to place sell stop orders on the Thinkorswim platform. Now specifically we're going to look at three examples. How to open a position and attach a sell stop order, how to attach a sell stop order to an existing position, and finally, how to adjust your price once you have a sell stop order working. Let's jump in and take a look. For our first example, I'm going to show you how to buy 100 shares of stock while simultaneously attaching a sell stop order. To do this, navigate to the Trade tab and type in a symbol. For this example, let's use Apple. Next, right click your mouse on the ask price, hover over Buy Custom, and select with STOP. You'll see that two orders have now appeared at the bottom of our screen, both a buy and a sell order, and the advance order type has automatically been set to first triggers all. What this means is because this is a sequence of orders, in order for the second order to begin working, the first order must fill first. You can see we have an order to buy 100 shares of Apple stock at a floating limit price good for the day. Floating meaning the padlock is open so that the price in the box is floating with the current market on the ask price, and the second order is a sell order to sell 100 shares of stock on a standard stock market order. Now, let's break this down. A stock market order is an order that triggers off a price and then sends a market order to sell shares of stock at the best available price at that moment. The standard means that the trigger price will trigger based off of the bid price. If this was a buy order, the standard stop order would trigger off the ask price. You can change this by clicking the dropdown here, and if you want your sell stop order to trigger off the ask price, you can select that here. The mark price would trigger it halfway between the bid and the ask price, so you have some options there and how you want your stop order to be triggered. So if you wanted to buy Apple shares, for example, at $320, you could type that in, hit Enter. You'll notice that the padlock is now locked and we are no longer floating with the current market. So in order for us to get a fill on these shares, Apple stock would need to go down to 320. You can see our stop trigger price is, by default, set to a $1 offset. The other thing to notice this little link button. Currently these orders are linked together. And what I mean by that is if I change the price in the upper buy order,...
