A-shares: write the exit constraint before entry

For ordinary mainland A-shares, a new purchase generally cannot be resold that day. Price limits depend on the board, security status and special circumstances. A planned stop is not a guarantee of execution: overnight gaps or a limit-down queue can prevent an exit at the assumed price. Do not extend these rules automatically to every ETF, convertible bond or other product. Verify the exact security with the exchange and broker.

Trading example

You buy on Monday and your thesis fails that afternoon. A same-day exit assumption is invalid for the newly purchased ordinary shares. Your simulation must carry the position into the next eligible session and include an adverse gap scenario.

Try this in your journal

Choose one actual security. Record its board, earliest permitted resale, applicable price-limit rule, trading session and a failed-exit scenario. Add the official source and date checked.

Check your understanding

Does the simulated exit obey that security’s rules? Have you kept planned loss separate from possible realised loss?
