Trading operation refers to the entire set of activities and processes involved in buying and selling financial instruments—such as stocks, cryptocurrencies, commodities, or derivatives—with the goal of making a profit or managing risk.

Key Components of Trading Operations:

1. Order Placement

Traders initiate trades by placing orders (e.g., market, limit, stop-loss).

Orders specify what to buy/sell, how much, and at what price.

. Execution

The order is matched and fulfilled on an exchange or trading platform.
