Market
What it does: executes immediately at the best available price in the order book.
Typical use: fast entry or exit when execution certainty matters more than price precision.
Key parameters: side and quantity (plus reduce-only where applicable).
Tradeoff: highest fill certainty, but slippage can occur in fast or thin markets.
Example: buy 1 BTC as a market order; it fills instantly across available asks until the size is completed.
