Below is Schwab's explanation of Stop Limit Orders. Once you set the Stop Price what strategies do you employ to set a Limit Price? What are the pro's and cons?
Thanks!
Schwab Explanation
Stop Limit Order
A Stop Limit Order is an order which becomes a Limit Order once the security trades at the designated stop price. A Stop Limit Order instructs a broker to buy or sell at a specific price or better, but only after a given Stop price has been reached or passed. It is a combination of a Stop Order and a Limit Order.
To enter a Sell Stop Limit Order, you must enter a Stop price below the current security price and a Limit price less than or equal to the Stop price. If the security trades at or below the Stop price, the Limit Order to sell the security you entered will be activated.
A Stop Limit Order does not guarantee an execution.
NOTE: Schwab will not trigger your stop or stop limit orders based upon odd-lot transactions, or any other transactions excluded from the consolidated last sale price calculations.
