how can it get sold at a higher price-which means the system is not correct.i understand if i did not cancel in time then it have been sold at R1.40.all i am doing here is bringing to your attention -so it does not affect u one day.so what if it happened to me,and i dont wish it apon any one that is tading in his personal capacity.all i ask is rectify and make it a better trading place for all.we all work hard for our money......ok,ok,not all of us....we can just wait and manipulate any system and say sorry--- the system took over or works like that.all system are man made making all errors man made.makes u think does it.?????????????????????????? May god bless all and bless the money earn no matter which way they earned it.

akb: It is a rule of the JSE. If you don't like it, complain to them. If you put in a bid to buy at a limit price, that price will remain on the system until it matches or expires. You will get your price. But, if you put in a sell offer, the JSE will match that against any better bids. It is to the advantage of the seller. Yes, it has happened to me many times. No, I have never been unhappy with it.

I have never heard of anyone complaining about getting a better price for a trade than what they requested. Sounds like a good deal to me. Sell my SASOL's for R1000 please!

abk, maybe you should trade abo again, 1c makes a big difference there. The bottom line is: If you want to use a stop loss, USE a stop loss, you cannot insert you own manual stoploss system by trying to sell your shares at a lower price that the current price. It will never work that way
