Question What is a 'Stop Order'?
Advice from Guru
Hello Peter,

A stop 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, limiting the investor's loss or locking in a profit. Once the price crosses the predefined entry/exit point, the stop order becomes a market order.

Also referred to as a "stop" or "stop-loss order."
