It's very simple.  You can use a limit order to MAKE money, NOT to prevent you from LOSING money.

So if you have MOVIE stock buy at $50, and you want to sell it if it goes to $60...set a limit order to do that.

If you short MOVIE at $50 and you want to sell it if it RISES to $55, it will execute right away since you can't use limit orders to prevent losses...only to make profits.  There is no stop loss ability in HSX.

Hope that helps.
