If you’re scalping on Binance, BUY LIMIT and SELL LIMIT are two features you really wanna know how to use.
A BUY LIMIT lets you set the exact price where you wanna buy. A SELL LIMIT lets you set the price where you wanna take profit. This means you don’t have to chase every move on the chart.
Example 1 — Using LIMIT:
SOL is at $200, but you only wanna buy at $198. You place a BUY LIMIT at $198. If SOL drops to $198, your order can fill automatically. You don’t have to sit there waiting.
Example 2 — Without LIMIT:
SOL starts moving from $200 → $202 → $204. You hesitate, then buy at $204 because you’re afraid of missing the move. A few minutes later, SOL drops to $201. Now you’re already down.
That’s the difference. LIMIT orders help you trade your planned price instead of chasing the market.
For scalping, having an entry and exit plan BEFORE you enter can make a huge difference.
