Stop Loss Order Example

You buy 100 shares of ABC Company at Rs 100 each with a view that the price will appreciate in a few weeks. What if the price goes downward for some reason? To cover such a scenario, you can place a Stop Loss Sell order for selling the shares if it reaches Rs 95. While placing a Stop Loss order, you need to set 2 prices- Trigger Price (the price at which order will be triggered) and Stop Loss (the price at which the price is executed). The order will be automatically executed when the share price reaches Rs 95.
