Stop Loss
Understand how position size, stops, risk/reward and account exposure affect outcomes.
Stop Loss
A stop loss requests an exit after a trigger. It helps define a plan but can execute at a different price in gaps or fast markets. Confirm trigger conventions, valid distance rules and whether the broker offers any explicit guaranteed-stop product.
Example
A planned $50 stop loss can produce a larger realized loss after slippage and fees.
