Answer - You should place a STOP LOSS order to BUY 200 shares at $52.5
Reason -
Amount received from short sale = 200 × $46 = $9,200
Loss = $1,300 = 200 shares * Price - $9,200
Loss = $1300 + $9200 = 200 shares * price
Loss = $10500 = 200 shares * price
Price = $10500 ÷ 200 shares = $52.5 per share
Here the shares are sold at $46 per share, now if the price increases it will cause a loss in transaction. So if we want to stop the loss at $1300 over the sale price, we need to buy the shares and cancel the transaction at $52.5 per share.
If the solution helped, please give it a thumbs up. Thank you.
