Triggered orders allow you to schedule buy or sell orders for a specific asset, which will only be executed when the price of the asset reaches a specific point. Learn more about what Triggered Orders are in our article: What are Triggered Orders and how do they work?.
How to set up a Triggered Buy Order:
Select the asset you would like to buy and tap on it to display the Instrument details screen.
Tap on the Trade button and select “Buy”.
All orders are by default selected as market orders. Tap on the “Market Order” field to change the order type and select “Triggered Order”.
Specify your target price or choose the target % change (e.g. -10%).The maximum % change you can select is 50% higher or lower than the current price of the asset.
Choose the amount of money you want to invest in this asset (with the minimum of €2 and a maximum of €4,500) and make sure that you have a debit card linked to your Shares account*.
Tap on “Review” to check all the details of your order and check the “I agree to authorise automatic debit card payments” field.
Tap on “Schedule”, select the visibility of your trade and that’s it. Your triggered order will be placed on the market when the asset’s price hits the target price you’ve set**. When the order is executed, you will receive a notification and your trade will be posted.
How to set up a Triggered Sell Order:
Select the asset you would like to sell from your Portfolio section (visible on the main screen in the app) and tap on it to display the Instrument details screen.
Tap on the Trade button and select “Sell”.
All orders are by default selected as market orders. Tap on the “Market Order” field to change the order type and select “Triggered Order”.
Specify your target price or choose the target % change (e.g. +10%). The maximum % change you can select is 50% higher or lower than the current price of the asset.
Choose the % of your holdings in this asset which you want to sell and make sure that you have a debit card linked to your Shares account*.
Tap on “Review” to check all the details of your order.
Tap on “Schedule”, select the visibility of your trade and that’s it. Your triggered sell order will be placed on the market when the asset’s price hits the target price you’ve set**. When the order is executed, you will receive a notification and your trade will be posted.
*To set up and execute a Triggered Order, you need to have a debit card linked to your Shares account. If you unlink your card from your Shares account while having any scheduled Triggered Orders, they will not be executed.
**As these orders trigger a market order when the desired price is hit, the actual price cannot be guaranteed; it is determined upon execution at the best available price at that time.
You can also create a new Triggered Order on your Invest screen, by navigating to the Plans and Orders section.

You can schedule a maximum of 5 triggered buy and sell orders for each asset, with a maximum of 100 triggered orders in total (buy and sell). If you would like to schedule a new triggered order for a specific asset, you can either wait for your existing buy or sell orders to execute, or cancel them.
