A) 51 LO 16.c- This is really two orders. The first is to stop at 50. That is, once the stock trades at 50 or lower, the order is elected (triggered) and becomes a live working order. That order is to sell at 50 or better. Therefore, the first time the stock hits 50 (or less), is the trade at 50. That triggers the sell limit order to sell at 50 or better. The next trade is at 49 and that is not an acceptable price given the limit order set at 50. The following price, however, at 51, is the next acceptable price after the order is triggered and that is where the order would be executed.

The buy stop at 45 would trigger immediately and would become a market order to buy. As there is nothing that indicated he owns the shares now, the sell long would be rejected. The sell stop short at $45 would become a market order to sell the stock short when it trades at 45.
