I have been doing some research into some brokers, I am struggling to find ones that allow a stop loss when placing an order. Like you can when you place a spreadbet.
For IG for example, it seems you have to place an order to buy then a separate order to sell at your chosen get out price. Is this general common practice?
Or are there firms that allow to set a stop when making a buy order?
Hargreaves Lansdown you can do a stop loss straight after you have placed an order. I think it's common practice. I don't see the problem really.
