a.A sell limit order above $30
b.A buy stop order above $30
c.A sell stop order below $30
d.A buy limit order below $30

A buy stop order placed above the current price triggers a buy-to-cover once the stock rises to the stop, capping the short seller's loss. Because a short position loses money as the price rises, a buy stop is the standard protective order.
