		<description>Dboy - Don&#039;t know what bee got in your bonnet, but:

1) I argued against the idea of &quot;stop-loss&quot;, not for it. And note that I said &quot;idea&quot; because that was the basis if the question asked, not formal industry terminology (terminology that I find most individual traders either don&#039;t know or don&#039;t care about in any case).
2) This is not a discussion of systems, so on what basis can you draw any conclusions about my knowledge of systems? The moving average cross-over example was meant to indicate that some systems are not condusive to the use of stops in the standard fashion because they employ an exit-and-reverse strategy.
3) The term used by the questioner was &quot;capital protection&quot;, which is the same as your &quot;money-management&quot;.
4) This was never meant to be &quot;an intro to stops&quot;, but as the first setence indicates, an answer to a question asked - full stop, nothing more.</description>

		<description>1) the term &quot;stop loss&quot; is no longer used in the brokerage business. The term implied that it was a way to guarantee the prevention of a loss, which is of course not true (opening gaps, etc).   &quot;Stop-loss&quot; is no longer a NASD-legal term.

2) moving average crossovers are NOT a system, and it appears that you have no idea what systems are.

3) a stop that is used to protect against a severe market event is generally known as a money-management stop.

4) if you are going to bother to write an intro to stops, it might be good to define what they are, how they might be used, the different types of stops, etc. End result is that this page is completely useless.
