Bid price,Stop loss and Market PriceThe analysts and institutions can see both your bid price as well as your stop loss price and move their position against you. Say you decide to put a bid price for CVX at .23c currently .235c The analysts seeing that puts his bid price below yours at .225c So tha6s why we say don't put buy at a bid price and don't put a stop loss. When you decide to buy wait until it comes to your price and buy it then, at MARKET PRICE. When you buy at market price it automatically starts chewing into the wall at ASK price. So again buy at market price if you wanna help the share price!!
