Additional Comments:
Example: A client buys XYZ at 65 per share and wants to “bail-out” if the stock hits 60, so theyenter the above order. Nothing happens so long as the stock stays above 60, but once a tradeoccurs at or lower than 60 the order becomes activated and will immediately be filled. Theexecution will be the next price after 60, perhaps more than 60, perhaps less, perhaps exactly 60.
