Sound a lot like you want somebody else to do all the work for you. You seem to think a limit order is any sort of "protection" against swings prices and not something that will be hunted by an algorithm trading btc. You also don't even know at what price to place your order. Pathetic.

like he said,
you can usually expect some whipsaw action on a binary event like this to gobble up stops before the market actually moves in the proper direction

massive buying and selling of people just before the announcement, some getting in to gamble, some getting out to avoid the gamble, etc.

see: gold movement before a fed meeting or oil movement every wednesday at EIA petroleum reports

I dont know alot about this, you're right. I'm going to have my stop at 1,150 and Limit at 1,000.

So the trick is trying to keep the limit low enough that a swing doesn't go right past it then.

I'm just trying to make sure I don't lose my ass,while being optimistic ETF approval.

Mean while keeping the stop low enough that a little tug back and forth doesn't trip it.

can you actually do that on Poloniex? I don't see an option to buy or sell BTC, only options to trade BTC for other currencies.
