There are a few possibilities.

First, if the parent order is a pending order waiting for some event, then when the parent fills, by default, the child orders are going to maintain the same offset that was initially set. Depending on where the parent fills relative to the original price point, the child orders would then move. Refer to the following setting:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Adjust Attached Orders to Maintain Same Offset on Parent Fill (Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> General)

Second, depending on the Stop Loss type of order, it could move. For instance, if it is a Trailing Stop Loss. Refer to the Order Types information at this link:
