  STOPS IN CRYPTOCURRENCY  TRADING What is a Stop? A stop (or stop-loss order) is a type of order you place with your exchange that automatically sells (or buys, in case of shorting) your cryptocurrency when it reaches a certain price. It acts as a safety net to prevent large losses. ✅ Types of Stop Orders Stop-Loss Order Triggers a market order when the asset hits a specified price. Example: You buy Bitcoin at $30,000 and set a stop-loss at $28,000. If the price drops to $28,000, your Bitcoin is automatically sold to limit further loss. Stop-Limit Order More precise: it sets both a stop price and a limit price. Example: Stop at $28,000, limit at $27,900. When BTC hits $28,000, a limit order is placed to sell at $27,900 or better. Trailing Stop A dynamic stop that moves with the market price. Example: You set a trailing stop 5% below the highest price. If BTC rises to $35,000, the stop adjusts to $33,250. If the price then drops by 5%, the order is triggered. 🧠 Why Use Stops?...
