Question:
May one place a stop loss on Friday if the is a change it might get triggered on Shabbos? In a trading account.
Is trading forbidden in any way?
May one but shares on the tel Aviv stock exchange in a company that doesn't keep Shabbos. n
Answer:
Hello,
If the stop loss is automated, and not done by a person, then it is permitted, as no one is doing melacha here.
