Trigger price is the price that a trader has specified to place a buy or sell order on an exchange. Whether you’re placing a stop-loss order or stop loss market order, it is necessary to specify the trigger price. Whenever a stock reaches that price level, then the order will be automatically placed for execution. For instance, while placing a stop-loss order, if you have specified 300 as trigger price and 290 as the limit price for a sell order, it means that when a stock reaches 300 then the SL order will get activated and will be executed at Rs. 290.
