Pending Buy Stop order

What is a pending Buy Stop order? A Buy Stop order is a type of pending order, which is a position to buy, opened by the broker when the price rises to the level specified by the trader. How does Buy Stop order work? A Buy Stop order is placed if a trader believes that the price will rise to a certain level, usually a resistance level, after which it will continue to rise. In this case the purchase will always be made at a price higher than the current market price. For example, on a daily chart of the AUD/USD currency pair, we observe a Double Bottom trend reversal pattern. We expect that soon the price will reach the resistance level at 0.7270, will break through it and the pair will start to form an uptrend.
