I learned rather belatedly that for equity stops do not trigger during extended hours. I guess that means for equity holders after markets shut one is on one's own. How wonderful.I was in a standard lot ETF that overnight went against me by $ 7 K and the stop ONLY kicked in when the market opened. So what the buy and hold crowd and AIM players do to compensate for this risk. Hmmm I wonder how many know of the risk they carry. It is concentrate on futures for me from now on.
