Good question James...

I set it at 190 to allow some "breathing space" with Margin.

In particular, OV uses the previous day's Close for calculating how many shares to buy the next morning. If the share price goes up in the morning, the purchase (# shares x new price) could be more than what you have available in your account and then be rejected by the broker.
