#OrderTypes101

In crypto and traditional trading, understanding order types is key. A market order buys or sells instantly at the best available price—great for speed, but not price control. A limit order sets a specific price to buy or sell, only executing when that price is met—ideal for planning. A stop-loss order helps manage risk by selling automatically when the price drops to a set level. Take-profit orders do the opposite, locking in gains. Advanced traders also use stop-limit and trailing stop orders. Choosing the right type helps balance speed, risk, and strategy in any trading environment.
