Good Points to note. Its even there in Options writing, where lets say you write (Sell) 5500 Put, the trigger might be at 5550. Markets can go to 5540 for a few mins and bounce back to 5700. Even though 5700 is a profitable situation, your contract would have auto squared off on trigger at 5500 in losses unless you have additional funds.
Just make sure to have sufficient funds so that your positions don't auto square off.
