Basic order types

Basic order types are the core execution primitives on 1024EX. All advanced order types ultimately execute as one or more market and/or limit orders.

quick navigation

  • market — executes immediately at the best available price.
  • limit — executes at a specified price (or better) when available.

how to choose

  • choose market when fill certainty matters more than price control (slippage possible).
  • choose limit when price control matters more than immediate execution (may not fill).
