Trading without knowing your order types?
That's like bringing a spoon to a gunfight. 🥄💥
The market’s a battlefield — your orders are the weapons. Pick wisely: sniper? hammer? trap?
Here’s your quick guide to mastering the arsenal 🔽
🔹 Market Order – “Get me in NOW”
You hit the button, you’re in — whatever the price.
✅ Super fast
❌ Might pay way more (or sell way lower) than you hoped — especially in illiquid markets.
📉 I once bought a microcap at market... it spiked 7% instantly. My loss aged like fine wine, bitter and expensive. 🍷
🔹 Limit Order – “This price or nothing”
Set your price. If the market comes to you — boom, you're in.
✅ Full control
❌ Might never fill if price doesn’t reach.
🎣 My go-to move: set limit orders like traps. I wait, the market walks in. 🪤
🔹 Stop-Loss – “I want to live”
Auto-sells if price drops to your limit. Risk management 101.
✅ Saves you from disaster
❌ Can trigger on fakeouts
💀 If I had one on $LUNA in 2022... I’d still have $400. But no, I “believed.” Ouch.
🔹 Take-Profit – “I’m cashing out & chilling”
Auto-sells when price hits your target.
✅ Locks in profit
❌ Might miss a moonshot, but green is green 💚
💤 TP sold my STX at +35% while I was sleeping. Woke up richer. Better than coffee. ☕
🤖 Pro move: Combo orders
Some platforms let you set TP + SL at once.
You enter the trade, then instantly lock in both “bag secured” and “emergency exit.”
✅ Pro-level risk control
✅ Stress-free trading
📌 TLDR:
Your order type = your edge.
Use the wrong one, and it’s game over.
Use the right one, and you’re not just trading — you’re hunting. 🧠🎯
