Trade smarter with Limit Orders on PDAX

Limit Orders

A limit order provides traders with the direction to purchase or sell a security at a specified price or better. Unlike market orders, which execute immediately at the prevailing market price, limit orders offer traders the ability to dictate the price at which they are willing to transact.

The benefits of limit orders include:

- Price Control: Traders can specify the price at which they want to execute their trades, ensuring they get the desired price or better.

- Risk Management: By setting predefined prices, traders can avoid buying too high or selling too low, thereby minimizing potential losses.

- Avoiding Market Volatility: Limit orders help traders avoid the impact of sudden price fluctuations by only executing trades at specified prices.

- Automation: Once set, limit orders can execute automatically when the market reaches the specified price, allowing traders to trade without constant monitoring.
