To set up a stop limit order, you first choose a stop price at which your order will be triggered. Then, you set a limit price at which you want the order to be executed. When the stop price is reached, the order becomes a limit order and will only be executed at or better than the limit price you set.

A stop order becomes a market order when the stock reaches a certain price, while a stop limit order becomes a limit order when the stock hits a specified price.

The stop limit order combines the characteristics of a stop order and a limit order. A basic stop order will buy/sell your security at the market price once your stop has been reached or passed. A stop limit order will buy/sell the security at a specified price once the stop has been reached or passed. If you use a stop limit, and your limit is too high/low your order may not get filled which will negate the purpose of putting the stop on in the first place. I tend to stick with stop orders if I am trying to protect a loss on a security.

A trailing stop limit is a type of order that combines a trailing stop with a limit order, allowing investors to set a limit on the price at which the order will be triggered. A trailing stop, on the other hand, is a type of order that adjusts the stop price as the market price moves in a favorable direction, helping to lock in profits.

To set a stop limit sell order, you first choose the stock you want to sell and set a stop price, which triggers the order. Then, you set a limit price, which is the minimum price you are willing to accept for the sale. Once both prices are set, the order will be placed with your broker.

To use a stop-limit order to sell short a stock at a specific price point, you would set a stop price at which the order becomes active and a limit price at which the order will be executed. If the stock price falls to the stop price, the order will be triggered, and it will only be executed at or above the limit price you set. This allows you to sell short the stock at a specific price point.

A trailing stop limit is a type of order that combines a trailing stop with a limit order. It allows investors to set a limit on the maximum loss they are willing to incur while also trailing the price of an asset. On the other hand, a trailing stop loss is a type of order that automatically adjusts the stop price based on the movement of the asset's price.
The main difference between the two is that a trailing stop limit sets a limit on the maximum loss, while a trailing stop loss does not have a limit. Trailing stop limits can help investors manage their risk by ensuring they do not incur more losses than they are comfortable with. However, they may also result in missed opportunities if the price moves quickly. Trailing stop losses, on the other hand, can help investors lock in profits and limit losses without setting a specific limit.
Overall, both trailing stop limit and trailing stop loss orders can impact the management of investment positions by helping investors protect their gains and limit their losses. It is important for investors to carefully consider their risk tolerance and investment goals when deciding which type of order to use.

All trades are made up of separate orders, that are used together to make a complete trade. All trades consist of at least two orders (one buy and one sell order), usually with one order to enter the trade, and one or more orders to exit the trade.
A single order is either a buy order or a sell order, and an order can be used either to enter a trade or to exit a trade. If a trade is entered with a buy order, then it will be exited with a sell order, and vice versa. For example, if a trader expected the market's price to go up, the simplest trade would consist of one buy order to enter the trade, and one sell order to exit the trade. Conversely, if a trader expected the market's price to go down, the simplest trade would consist of one sell order to enter the trade, and one buy order to exit the trade. If this last example seems backwards, see the shorting entry in the trading glossary for an explanation.
Traders have access to many different types of orders that they can use in various combinations to make their trades. The following explanations will explain each of the order types, and how these orders are used in trading. Note that many traders do not fully understand all of these order types, and they may seem slightly abstract at first, but their use will become clearer once you start to use them in your trading.
Market Orders (MKT)
Market orders are orders to buy or sell a contract at the current best price, whatever that price may be. In an active market, market orders will always get filled, but not necessarily at the exact price that the trader intended. For example, a trader might place a market order when the best price is 1.2954, but other orders might get filled first, and the trader's order might get filled at 1.2956 instead. Market orders are used when you definitely want your order to be processed, and are willing to risk getting a slightly different price.
Limit Orders (LMT)
Limit orders are orders to buy or sell a contract at a specific or better price. Limit orders may or may not get filled depending upon how the market is moving, but if they do get filled it will always be at the chosen price, or at a better price if there is one available. For example, if a trader placed a limit order with a price of 1.2954, the order would only get filled at 1.2954 or better, if it got filled at all. Limit orders are used when you want to make sure that you get a suitable price, and are willing to risk not being filled at all.
Stop Orders (STP)
Stop orders are similar to market orders, in that they are orders to buy or sell a contract at the best available price, but they are only processed if the market reaches a specific price. For example, if the market price is 1.2567, a trader might place a buy stop order with a price of 1.2572. If the market then trades at 1.2572 or above, the trader's stop order will be processed as a market order, and will then get filled at the current best price. Stop orders are processed as market orders, so if the stop (or trigger) price is reached, the order will always get filled, but not necessarily at the price that the trader intended. Stop orders will trigger if the market trades at or past the stop price, so for a buy order, the stop price must be above the current price, and for a sell order, the stop price must be below the current price.
Stop Limit Orders (STPLMT)
Stop limit orders are a combination of stop orders and limit orders. Like stop orders, they are only processed if the market reaches a specific price, but they are then processed as limit orders, so they will only get filled at the chosen price, or a better price if there is one available. For example, if the current price is 1.2567, a trader might place a buy stop limit order with a price of 1.2572. If the market trades at 1.2572 or above, the stop limit order will be processed as a limit order. If the market continues to trade at 1.2572, the limit order will get filled at 1.2572 or at a better price if there is one available. Stop limit orders may or may not get filled depending upon whether or not the market reaches the chosen price, and then depending upon how the market moves. Stop limit orders will trigger if the market trades at or past the stop price, so for a buy order, the stop price must be above the current price, and for a sell order, the stop price must be below the current price.
Market if Touched Orders (MIT)
Market if touched orders are identical to stop orders, except that they are used when the market price has already traded past the stop price, and the trader only wants the order to be processed if the market price comes back to the stop price. For example, if the market price is 1.3010, and the trader places a buy market if touched order with a price of 1.3001, the order will only be processed if the market trades at or below 1.3001. If the order is processed, it will be processed as a market order, and will get filled at the current best price. Market if touched orders will trigger the opposite way than a stop order, so for a buy order, the trigger price must be below the current price, and for a sell order, the trigger price must be above the current price.
Limit if Touched Orders (LIT)
Limit if touched orders are identical to stop limit orders, except that they are used when the market price has already traded past the stop price, and the trader only wants the order to be processed if the market price comes back to the stop price. For example, if the market price is 1.3010, and the trader places a buy market if touched order with a price of 1.3001, the order will only be processed if the market trades at or below 1.3001. If the order is processed, it will be processed as a limit order. If the market continues to trade at 1.3001, the limit order will get filled at 1.3001 or at a better price is there is one available. Limit if touched orders will trigger the opposite way than a stop limit order, so for a buy order, the trigger price must be below the current price, and for a sell order, the trigger price must be above the current price

It's actually "limit order." It is a direction to a stockbroker to buy or sell at a specific price, or better. If it is a buy limit order, the broker will buy for you if the stock is at the limit order price or lower, and if it is a sell limit order, the broker will sell for you if the stock is at the limit order price or higher. A buy limit order is similar to a long call, and a sell limit order is similar to a long put.

From investopedia: An order placed with a broker to sell a security when it reaches a certain price. A stop-loss order is designed to limit an investor's loss on a position in a security. Although most investors associate a stop-loss order only with a long position, it can also be used for a short position, in which case the security would be bought if it trades above a defined price. A stop-loss order takes the emotion out of trading decisions and can be especially handy when one is on vacation or cannot watch his/her position. However, execution is not guaranteed, particularly in situations where trading in the stock is halted or gaps down (or up) in price. Also known as a "stop order" or "stop-market order."

The advantages of a stop limit order are that it allows traders to have more control over the price at which their trade is executed, thus reducing the risk of a bad fill. It also helps protect against sudden price fluctuations and can be effective in managing risk. However, a disadvantage is that if the price does not reach the specified stop price, the order may not get executed, potentially resulting in missed trading opportunities. Additionally, there is still the possibility of slippage if the market moves quickly and there are not enough buyers or sellers at the specified price.
