SL: Stop loss helps in fixing your loss.

If you think that the price will go down then you can put SL on a fixed price.

After which as soon as the current price of the share touches that SL, you get out of that trade, which does not cause you any more loss.

For example – You bought Reliance shares on 1970 and you think that the company is in UP trend, due to which its price will go up to 2200.

But this does not happen and the price goes to 1900, so to avoid such loss, you put SL below 1970 (Buy Price) only at 1950 so that if the price goes below that then your trade will be completed immediately and you will make a big loss. be able to escape

Stop Loss Market

SL-M: The only difference in this is that after touching the Stop Loss you put, the trade will be completed at whatever price the stock is going on in the market.
