How to do specific stop limits

B

I have a brokerage account with Fidelity and looking to set some stop limits on some of my positions. Goal is to set a floor of what I am willing to hold a stock at and sell if it goes below that price.

Using Fidelity's stop limit form, I have everything filled out but do not understand the difference between the STOP PRICE and the LIMIT PRICE.

Can anyone help clarify the differences in the two?
