#OrderTypes101 Understanding order types isn't just technical—it's essential to survival in crypto trading. I learned this the hard way.

Last month, I placed a market order to buy $SOL during a breakout. Within seconds, I was filled—but at a price 2% higher than expected due to low liquidity at that moment. That "slippage" cost me $90 instantly.

Since then, my go-to order is the limit order. It gives me full control over the price and keeps me disciplined. I also set stop-loss orders religiously to protect against sudden drops and use take-profit orders to lock in gains without emotion.

✅ Market Order = Speed

✅ Limit Order = Precision

✅ Stop-Loss = Risk Control

✅ Take-Profit = Discipline

📌 Pro Tip: Combine a limit entry with stop-loss and take-profit for a strong risk-managed setup.
