Stop Order
Order Types
Qué significa
An order that sits inactive until a trigger price is hit, then becomes a market order. It is most often used to cap losses.
Ejemplo
You buy at $100 and place a sell stop at $95. If price drops to $95, the stop fires and sells at market -- your fill might be $94.90 in a fast market.
Error común de principiantes
Beginners expect a stop order to fill exactly at the stop price. Once triggered, it is a market order, so in fast markets the fill can be much worse.
