A stop-loss order is a type of order that is used to limit the potential loss on a trade. When a stop-loss order is triggered, the order is automatically executed to sell the security at a specified price. This can help to protect traders from losing more money than they are willing to risk on a trade.
There are a number of different ways to avoid a stop loss. One common method is to use a trailing stop-loss order. A trailing stop-loss order moves with the price of the security, so that it is always a certain percentage below the current market price. This can help to prevent the stop-loss order from being triggered by a temporary dip in the price of the security.
