KEY TAKEAWAYS

• A stop-loss order is placed with a broker to sell securities when they reach a specific price.
• Figuring out where to place your stop-loss depends on your risk threshold—the price should minimize and limit your loss.
• The percentage method limits the stop-loss at a specific percentage.
• In the support method, an investor determines the most recent support level of the stock and places the stop-loss just below that level.
• The moving average method sees the stop-loss placed just below a longer-term moving average price.

What Is a Stop-Loss Order?
A stop-loss order is placed with a broker to sell securities when they reach a specific price.1 These orders help minimize the loss an investor may incur in a security position. So if you set the stop-loss order at 10% below the price at which you purchased the security, your loss will be limited to 10%.

What to Consider with Stop-Loss Orders
As an investor there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind when it comes to stop-loss orders:

• Stop-loss orders are not for active traders.
• Stop-loss orders don't work well for large blocks of stock as you may lose more in the long run.
• Brokers charge different fees for different orders, so keep an eye out for how much you're paying.
• And never assume your stop-loss order has gone through. Always wait for the order confirmation.
