#OrderTypes101
Did you know that choosing the right order type can make a difference in your trades? 🚀 Here I explain the **4 basic types** that every trader should know:
1️⃣ **Market Order**
- Buy/Sell **at the current** market price.
- ⚡ Fast, but with no control over the exact price.
- *Example:* Buy BTC right now at the available price.
2️⃣ **Limit Order**
- Set a **specific** price to execute your order.
- 🎯 Ideal for entering/exiting with control.
- *Example:* "Buy ETH if it drops to $3,200".
3️⃣ **Stop-Loss Order**
- Automates selling to **limit losses**.
- 🛡️ Protects your capital if the market moves against you.
- *Example:* Sell SOL if it drops to $140 (to avoid further losses).
4️⃣ **Take-Profit Order**
- Closes your position when it reaches a **desired profit**.
- 💰 Locks in gains before the market retraces.
- *Example:* Sell BTC if it rises to $72,000.
🔍 **Bonus:** Advanced orders like **OCO (One-Cancels-the-Other)** combine Stop-Loss and Take-Profit into a single strategy.
