Stop orders are used to close a position when the market moves in an unfavorable direction, limiting losses or protecting profits.

• Stop Loss: An order placed to close a position at a specified price level to limit potential losses. It is executed at the market price when the stop level is reached.

• Take Profit: An order placed to close a position at a specified price level to lock in profits. It is executed at the market price when the take profit level is reached.

 

 

 

4. Stop Limit Orders

Stop limit orders combine features of stop orders and limit orders.

• Buy-Stop Limit: This order type combines a buy-stop order and a buy-limit order. Once the buy-stop price is reached, a buy-limit order is placed at the specified limit price.

• Sell-Stop Limit: This order type combines a sell-stop order and a sell-limit order. Once the sell-stop price is reached, a sell-limit order is placed at the specified limit price.

 

 

 

5. Trailing Stop

A trailing stop order is a dynamic stop loss order that follows the market price by a specified distance.

• Trailing Stop: As the market price moves in a favorable direction, the trailing stop price adjusts accordingly, maintaining the specified distance from the current market price. If the market reverses by the trailing distance, the order is executed.
