2. *Limit Order*: Buying or selling an asset at a specific price that has been set.
3. *Stop Order*: Buying or selling an asset when the price reaches a certain level to limit losses or lock in profits.
4. *Stop-Limit Order*: A combination of a stop order and a limit order, where the order will be executed at a specific price after the price reaches the stop level.
