What is a Limit Order?

A limit order allows users to set their preferred order quantity and the maximum acceptable buy price or minimum sell price. The order will only be executed when the market price reaches or surpasses the specified price. Users can use limit orders to buy assets at a lower price or sell at a price higher than the current market price.

• The limit sell price cannot be lower than 80% of the latest market price.

What is a Market Order?

A market order is an order executed immediately at the best available market price. Users do not need to manually set a price, making it ideal for quick execution. The transaction price range is limited to 20% of the latest price, and any orders exceeding this limit will be automatically canceled by the system.

Advantages:

• Instant execution, suitable for taking advantage of market fluctuations.
• Ideal for momentum trading, stop-loss strategies, or quick market entry.
