We adjust guaranteed stops by the dividend amount to maintain the level of risk on a position. This also prevents a guaranteed stop from being triggered purely as the result of the dividend adjustment.
Example:
In the case of a five-point dividend adjustment on the Australia 200, the guaranteed stop level would also move down by 5 points.
