I guess that stops and stop limits are public information like limit
orders. The reason I'm concerned is that this would make it much easier
for someone to troll for stops by calculating beforehand how much they can
get if they push the price so much in a particular direction. I will
exploit stops in this way if the information is public. <insert weaselly
rationalization here>
