Limit Order

A limit order (Limit Order) is an order to buy and sell at a specific price.。Orders are executed and closed only in two cases:

When the specified price is reached, or when a better price is reached (lower than the specified bid price, or higher than the specified ask price)

Advantages: You can lock in the presentation price range and even trade at a better price, i.e. buy at a lower price or sell at a higher price.。

Note: If the price has not reached the specified price, the order will not be executed。Therefore, this order may not be able to close, and miss the investment market.。

老虎证券订单类型_限价单 Limit Order

Market Order

Market Order (Market Order) is the current market price to place an order to buy and sell, do not need to set their own price, decide the number of transactions can be。

Advantages: can be the fastest speed to close orders, to seize market opportunities, stop loss or take profit purpose。

Note: Market orders can only be placed at the opening of the stock market.。And a market order guarantees a deal, but not a deal price。Simply put, the price of the transaction fluctuates with the market and may be executed at a higher or lower price。

老虎证券订单类型_市价单 Market Order

Stop Order

Stop Order (Stop Order) refers to setting a specified stop-loss trigger price (Stop Price) in the order, when the stock price reaches the trigger price, the system automatically submits a buy or sell market order.。

Advantages: Set the target price of stop loss in advance, can control the degree of loss, protect the principal。

Note: Setting a stop-loss order does not guarantee 100% success in placing an order and closing a deal, and will be affected by factors such as insufficient purchasing power and insufficient positions, resulting in failure to trigger an order.。And there is no guarantee that the system's orders will be sold on the same day, because, like ordinary orders, it depends on the market's buying and selling orders.。If there is no transaction on the same day, the order will be cancelled.。

老虎证券订单类型_止损单 Stop Order

Stop Limit Order

Stop Limit Order (Stop Limit Order) refers to the setting of a specified stop-loss trigger price (Stop Price) and Limit Price (Limit Price) in the order, when the stock price reaches the trigger price, the system automatically submits a buy or sell limit order.。

The biggest difference between a stop-loss limit order and a stop-loss order is the addition of the "limit" part.。Stop orders will be in the form of market orders, so that the order as quickly as possible, but does not guarantee the transaction price;

A stop-loss limit order, on the other hand, will use a limit order as a pending order to guarantee the closing price, but does not guarantee that the order will be closed.。

Advantages: to limit orders, you can avoid the transaction price and the expected price has too much difference。

Note: When placing a buy order, the limit price (Limit Price) should be greater than the trigger price (Stop Price); when selling, the trigger price (Stop Price) should be less than the limit price (Limit Price) to avoid rapid price declines leading to widening losses。

For example, if you buy stock A for $100 and want to keep your maximum loss at 10%, you can make the next stop-loss limit order to sell, with a trigger price (Stop Price) of $91 and a limit price (Limit Price) of $90.。

When the stock price drops to $91, the system automatically submits a sell order with a limit of $90 (selling shares of Company A at $90)。When the stock price drops to $90, this sell order has a chance to close。
