One key advantage of using a stop-loss order is you don't need to monitor your holdings daily. A disadvantage is that a short-term price fluctuation could activate the stop and trigger an unnecessary sale. An example: • You have an intraday position. You purchased, 100 shares of SBI @ Rs. 100. You want to stop the loss if market moves opposite. You are able to bear Rs. 2 per share, i.e. 100*2 = Rs. 200. So you have to set SL order 3.6 Types of Orders – Stop Loss Order

Immediately after the price level of Rs 490.5 is breached, your sell order is sent to the exchange as a limit order. 3.6 Types of Orders – Buy SL
