    Explanation
    A buy limit order is placed when a trader wants to buy an asset at a specific price or lower. This means that the trader is willing to wait until the price drops to their desired level before executing the trade. By placing a buy limit order, the trader ensures that they do not buy the asset at a higher price than they are comfortable with.

    • B.

      Open a buy stop order

    • C.

      Open a sell stop order

    • D.

      Open a buy limit order

    Correct Answer
    C. Open a sell stop order
    Explanation
    A sell stop order is used when a trader wants to sell a security at a specific price or lower. This order type is typically used to limit potential losses or to initiate a short position. When the market price reaches or falls below the specified stop price, the sell stop order becomes a market order and is executed at the best available price. Therefore, opening a sell stop order means placing an order to sell a security once its price reaches or falls below a certain level.

    Rate this question:

    If you open a sell pending order below the current market price your stop loss would be:  

    • A.

      Above the entry price

    • B.

      Below the entry price

    • C.

      At the market price

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Above the entry price
    Explanation
    When you open a sell pending order below the current market price, it means that you are anticipating a decrease in the price of the asset. In order to limit your potential losses if the price goes against your prediction, you would set a stop loss above the entry price. This way, if the price starts to rise instead of fall, your position will be automatically closed at the stop loss level, preventing further losses.
