Carol's order will not execute until the price reaches $1000 USD, at which point Carols market buy order will be placed. Go Carol.
1.2 stop limit sell
Carol wants to set up a stop loss order as insurance against the price drastically dropping while Carol is on vacation.

If the price hits $699 Carol's stop loss will execute and a market order selling 5 BCH will be placed. Should of hodl'd, Carol.
