  A stop limit order is a type of order that allows you to set a specific price at which you want to buy or sell a cryptocurrency. It combines the features of a stop order and a limit order. When the price of the cryptocurrency reaches the stop price, the order is triggered and becomes a limit order. This means that the order will only be executed at the limit price or better. Stop limit orders can be useful in managing risk and protecting profits in cryptocurrency trading. For example, if you own a cryptocurrency and want to sell it if the price drops below a certain level, you can set a stop limit order with a stop price and a limit price. If the price reaches the stop price, the order is triggered and becomes a limit order to sell at the limit price or better. This can help you avoid selling at a much lower price than you intended in case of a sudden price drop.
