In the High Tatras, hikers use 'Stoj!' to warn others of falling rocks or dangerous wildlife like chamois or bears.

(Halt, who goes there?) is a classic phrase used by sentries in Slovak history and literature. Bratislava's public transport drivers sometimes shout 'Stojte!' if passengers are blocking the doors from closing.
The Hand Gesture
In Slovakia, 'Stoj!' is almost always accompanied by an open palm facing the person, just like a stop sign.
Don't be too blunt
Unless it's an emergency, adding 'prosím' (please) after 'Stojte' makes a huge difference in how you are perceived.
