Netting

The help page says that if a further deal is in the same direction, it increases that position. If it is in the opposite direction, it reduces the position, closes it when the volumes match, or reverses it when the opposite volume is larger. It does not matter whether the opposite deal came from a market order or a pending order. The broker chooses netting or hedging for the account. Stop-loss inheritance differs between the two. In netting, a later order on the same position replaces the previous stop levels, and a zero stop on the new order deletes them. Netting here is a position-keeping method. It is not the legal idea of setting sums off in an insolvency.
