Crypto Basics: What's the Difference Between a Limit Order and a Market Order? 🎓
Post:
Many people mix up these two order types when they start trading. Let's break it down simply:
📌 Market Order
Executes immediately at the current market price. Fast, but the price can shift slightly (slippage risk).
📌 Limit Order
You set your own price, and the order only executes once the market reaches it. Gives you more control, but there's no guarantee it will fill.
💡 When should you use which?
— Need to enter/exit quickly → Market Order
— Want to buy/sell at a specific price → Limit Order
Tip for beginners: try both with small amounts first and pay attention to the fee differences between them.
