Plus, about stop limit and stop loss:
A stop-limit order is an order type in Crypto trading that allows the users to execute a trade once the price reaches a specified minimum or maximum level. This order consists of setting both a stop price and a limit price. The stop price represents the price at which the trade begins, and the limit price represents the maximum or minimum price the investor is willing to allow. For example, if a stock is currently trading at $100 and a stop price of $90 and a limit price of $85 are set, the trade will begin at a price below $90 and proceed at a price above $85. This is used to execute a long or short order when the price is no longer decreasing.
A stop-loss order is an order used by users to minimize losses. This order means automatically selling(short)or buying(long) crypto when it reaches a specific price. For example, if a crypto is currently trading at $100 and a stop-loss price of $90 is set, the crypto will automatically be Short or Long when the price drops to $90. This is used to minimize losses when the price is no longer decreasing.
Therefore, a stop-limit order starts the trade at a specific price and proceeds until the user's desired price is reached, while a stop-loss order means automatically places a short or long position on crypto when it reaches a specific price.
