When you place a stop limit order on a stock it needs to trigger both the stop order and the limit order. For instance you place the order to buy stock XYZ with a stop at $55 and a limit of $56. For you to enter the stock needs to hit $55 but you also need to get filled at $56 or lower.
The stock heads up and hits $55 this triggers the stop. Now the order turns into a limit order.
In order for the stock to be bought in needs to stay below $56 long enough for your order to get filled. This can be Beneficial if you compare it to a regular stop order. Which will get you in at any price once the stock hits $55 or higher.
This order protects you from gaps. So if a stock opens up at a much higher price then you want to get into it at you will not have to. That is the major benefit of this order.
The drawback is that you might not actually get into the stock at all. If you just want to enter a position this is not the best order. A market order or a stop order may work better.
