A stop-limit order is a conditional trading instruction that combines elements of a stop order and a limit order to give traders greater control over execution price. It is designed to manage risk while avoiding unexpected fills during volatile market conditions. A stop-limit order consists of two prices: the stop price and the limit price. When the market reaches the stop price, the order becomes active and is converted into a limit order, which will only execute at the specified limit price or better. This structure allows traders to define the maximum or minimum price at which they are willing to transact, offering protection against slippage. However, because execution is not guaranteed, stop-limit orders carry the risk of remaining unfilled if the market moves rapidly beyond the limit price. In fast-moving crypto or FX markets, this can result in missed exits during sharp price swings. Stop-limit orders are commonly used by experienced traders who prioritize price certainty over execution certainty, particularly in low-liquidity environments or during high-impact news events.
