        <DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Stock Name" Width="280">
            <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding StockName}"/>
                </DataTemplate>
            </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
            <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <ComboBox Width="280" Name="cmbStock" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Stocks}" FocusManager.FocusedElement="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}" ></ComboBox>
                </DataTemplate>
            </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
        </DataGridTemplateColumn>
        <DataGridTextColumn Header="Unit Price" Width="SizeToCells" MinWidth="80" Binding="{Binding UnitPrice,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />
        <DataGridTextColumn Header="Unit" Width="SizeToCells" MinWidth="80" Binding="{Binding Unit}" IsReadOnly="True"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Header="Quantity" Width="SizeToCells" MinWidth="80" Binding="{Binding Quantity,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />
        <DataGridTextColumn Header="Discount" Width="SizeToCells" MinWidth="80" Binding="{Binding Discount,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/>
        <DataGridTextColumn Header="Amount" Width="SizeToCells" MinWidth="100" Binding="{Binding Amount,StringFormat=\{0:n2\}}" IsReadOnly="True" />
    </DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

The issue may be that you are using UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged which re-evalutes the text on every keystroke, and a number that ends in a decimal point is invalid. Try removing the UpdateSourceTrigger setting (therefore reverting to the default - LostFocus)
