BASIC RISKS INVOVLED IN TRADING ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE (EQUITY AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS) 1.1 Risk of Higher Volatility: Volatility refers to the dynamic changes in price that securities undergo when trading activity continues on the Stock Exchange. Generally, higher the volatility of a security, greater is its price swings. There may be normally greater volatility in thinly traded securities than in active securities. As a result of volatility, your order may only be partially executed or not executed at all, or the price at which your order got executed may be substantially different from the last traded price or change substantially thereafter, resulting in no .....

However, while the customer receives price protection, there is a possibility that the order may not be executed at all. 1.4.3 A stop loss order is generally placed "away" from the current price of a stock, and such order gets activated if and when the stock reaches, or trades through, the stop price. Sell stop orders are entered ordinarily below the current price, and buy stop orders are entered ordinarily above the current price. When the stock reaches the pre-determined price, or trades through such price, the stop loss order converts to a market/limit order and is executed at the limit or better. There is no assurance therefore that the limit order will be executable since a stock might penetrate the pre-determined price, in which case, the risk of such order not getting executed arises, just as with a regular limit order. 1.5 Risk of News Announcements: Issuers make news announcements that may impact the price of their securities. These announcements may occur during trading, and when combined with lower liquidity and higher volatility, may suddenly cause an unexpected positive or negative movement in the price of the security. 1. .....
