StopMarketOrder(symbol, quantity, stopPrice) will submit a market order when the stop price is reached.
StopMarketOrder(symbol, -1, self.Securities[symbol].Price-0.5)
For the above example, if you have a long position of the symbol, when the current price is lower than the symbol price when the order was placed minus 0.5, one share of the symbol will be sold at the market price.
For more order types, you can refer to the documentation.
