Quotes of the Day

ETF investors should always use limit orders-no exception. A good practice is to place a limit order a penny above the ask price. For example, if the ask is $16.94, place your limit order at $16.95. Some investors think entering a value higher than the current ask price is telling the market they're willing to overpay. But that's not true: a stock exchange matches orders from buyers and sellers and fills them at best mutually agreed upon price. If you enter a limit order to buy at $16.95 and there are units available for $16.94, our order will get filled a the lower price. When you're selling ETF shares, enter the limit order at the bid price or a penny below. [2021] - Dan Bortolotti

A trader who likes to follow long-term trends might use the 200-day moving average as a trailing stop, a stop-loss line that follows the price line at a distance. They might have a rule that they will not sell as long as the price remains above the 200-day moving average. If the price dips down below the 200-day MA, then the trailing stop has been triggered. [2019] - Glen Goodman
