Posted by Manish Posted on: 04-Mar-2014	When you buy stock , to protect your capital amount invested, you put 5% below the purchase price as a stop loss. SO whenever stock price goes below that, stock gets sold from your demat and you get protected for further loss in capital invested.

Please answer this question if you think you can answer it better
