I'm considering setting a stop-loss order for my investment, but I'm not sure if it's possible to set it above the current price. I want to protect myself from potential losses, but I also don't want to miss out on any potential gains.

Unlike traditional stop-loss orders, a buy-stop order is placed above the current market price.

The buy-stop order is triggered only when the market price rises above the specified level.

Once the price surpasses this threshold, the buy-stop order executes a market buy for the asset.
