Sell Order with Limit Price

Similarly you may have the stocks of company 'B' in your demat account, which you would like to sell at a price of Rs.500. But currently the market price of the stock is lesser than 500 and you expect that sooner the price will reach Rs. 500. In such a case you can place a Sell order with a limit price set to Rs. 500. In this case, the stocks will be sold only if the price reaches Rs.500 or above.

So if a Sell Order gets executed with the Limit Price specified, then you could be assured that the actual price at which the stocks are sold by you will always be either equal to or greater than the Limit Price specified by you.

"The game of speculation is the most uniformly fascinating game in the world. But it is not a game for the stupid, the mentally lazy, the man of inferior emotional balance, or for the get-rich-quick adventurer. They will die poor."
