#OrderTypes101
Master Your Trades Like a Pro!
New to trading? Confused about order types? Letโs break down the 3 core types every trader MUST know:
๐น 1. Market Order
โก๏ธ Instant Execution
You buy/sell at the best available price right now.
โ Fastest way to enter/exit.
โ ๏ธ No control over price โ can lead to slippage in volatile markets.
๐น 2. Limit Order
โก๏ธ Set Your Price
You decide the price you want to buy/sell at.
โ More control, better for sniping entries.
โ ๏ธ Might not fill if price doesn't reach your level.
๐น 3. Stop Order (Stop-Loss/Stop-Limit)
โก๏ธ Protection or Momentum Trigger
Executes a trade once a specific price (stop price) is hit.
โ Great for risk management or breakout plays.
โ ๏ธ Not guaranteed to fill at exact price in extreme volatility.
๐ฏ Pro Tip: Combine limit buys with stop-losses for maximum edge: precision in entry, protection on exit.
๐ก Knowing your order types = trading smarter, not harder.
