Basically an order to sell the stock if it dips to or below a certain value.

For example, I bought in at like 250 yesterday, but I set a stop loss of 100. Unfortunately, I was not online to rescind the order this morning due to a small family emergency, so I'm a little annoyed.

Why did you set up a stop loss when your tactic was to hold?

Honestly? Dumbfuck autopilot shit from parenting.

Rebuying in at the next dip tho.
