What is a Stop Order?
A stop (market) order is an order to buy or sell a security when its price moves past a particular point, ensuring a higher probability of achieving a predetermined entry or exit price. Once the order is triggered, the stop order becomes a market order. A stop order does not guarantee the order will be filled at a certain price after it is converted to a market order. In order to submit a stop order, you will need to specify the stop price.
