Order types

Market, limit and conditional orders, and how paired exits behave.
Market and limit
- A market order fills immediately against the orders resting on the book. You choose the size, not the price.
- A limit order sets the worst price you will accept. It fills at your price or better, and rests on the book if it cannot fill straight away.
Conditional orders
A conditional order sits idle until the market reaches a trigger price you set, and only then becomes a live order. Stop-loss and take-profit are both conditional orders — the difference is which side of the current price the trigger sits on.
Triggers fire on trades that actually print on our own order book, not on an external reference price.
Paired exits
You can attach a take-profit and a stop-loss to an order. They arm when that order fills, and if one triggers the other is cancelled, so you cannot end up exiting twice.
A conditional order checks that the funds are still available at the moment it triggers. If they are not — because you spent them elsewhere — it fails rather than overselling.
