Step-by-step explanation:

That the key difference between a limit order and a stop order is that the limit order will only be filled at the specific limit price or better; whereas, once a stop triggers at the specific price, it will be filled at the prevailing price in the market - which means that it could be executed at a price significantly different than the stop price.
