Stop Order (Stop)

A stop order is a type of market order that is executed when a specific price threshold is reached. It allows investors to set a price at which they want to buy or sell a security, and once that price is reached, the order is triggered and executed. This can be a useful tool for investors looking to limit their losses or lock in profits. However, it's important for investors to carefully consider the risks and potential impact of using stop orders in their trading strategies.
