📘 PROFESSIONAL ORDERS – CLEAR EXPLANATION
5 order types in the online simulator and on real exchanges
🟢 MARKET ORDER
The simplest and fastest order.
✅ What it does:
Buys or sells an asset INSTANTLY at the price currently on the exchange.
📱 Real-life example:
You walk into a store, see the price tag «iPhone – $100,000», immediately go to the register and buy it. You don’t haggle, you don’t wait for a discount – you just buy it now.
💻 How to use in the simulator:
- Select an asset (e.g.,
BTC); - Make sure the «Market» tab is active;
- Enter the quantity, e.g., “1”;
- Click «Buy»;
✅ The trade happens immediately at the current price.
🟡 LIMIT ORDER
An order for those who want to save.
✅ What it does:
Buys on the exchange ONLY AT YOUR SPECIFIED PRICE or lower.
Sells online ONLY AT YOUR SPECIFIED PRICE or higher.
📱 Real-life example:
You want to buy an iPhone, but you’re only willing to pay $90,000, no more. You leave a request at the store: “Call me when the price drops to $90,000.” The store calls you when it gets cheaper.
💻 How to use in the trading simulator:
- Click the «Limit» tab;
- In the «Price» field, enter your price (e.g.:
47000for Bitcoin); - Enter the quantity of assets to trade;
- Click «Buy»;
⏳ The order waits in the queue until the price reaches your level.
🔴 STOP ORDER or STOP-LOSS
Protection against losses. The most important order!
✅ What it does:
AUTOMATICALLY SELLS the asset when the price FALLS to a dangerous level.
📱 Real-life example:
You bought an iPhone for $100,000 and are afraid it will lose value. You tell a friend: “If the price drops to $90,000 – sell it immediately, don’t think twice!” Your friend watches and sells, without asking.
💻 How to use in the online simulator:
Method 1. Quick (recommended):
- Buy an asset;
- In the portfolio, click «SL -5%»;
👉 Automatically sets a sale if the price drops by 5%.
Method 2. Manual («Stop» tab):
- Click «Stop»;
- In the «Stop price» field, enter the level (e.g.:
46000); - Click «Sell»;
⚠️ WITHOUT A STOP-LOSS YOU COULD LOSE EVERYTHING! Always use it.
🟠 STOP-LIMIT ORDER
A combination of protection and price control.
✅ What it does:
When the price on the exchange drops to the stop price – a LIMIT ORDER TO SELL at your specified price is ACTIVATED.
📱 Real-life example:
You bought an iPhone for $100,000. You want to sell if the price drops to $90,000, BUT NOT BELOW $89,000.
“If the price drops to $90,000 – place a sell order for $89,500, but not cheaper!”
💻 How to use in the trading simulator:
- Click the «Stop-limit» tab;
- «Stop price» – activation level (e.g.:
47000); - «Price» – minimum sale price (e.g.:
46900); - Click «Sell»;
✅ Protection against slippage: you won’t sell for less than you want.
🟣 TAKE PROFIT ORDER
Automatic profit taking.
✅ What it does:
AUTOMATICALLY SELLS the asset when the price RISES to the desired level.
📱 Real-life example:
You bought an iPhone for $100,000, want to make $10,000 profit. You say: “When the price reaches $110,000 – sell it immediately, take the profit!”
💻 How to use in the simulator:
Method 1. Quick:

❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FROM BEGINNERS
Q: What should a beginner choose first?
A: A market order to enter, a stop-loss for protection.
Q: Why isn’t my limit order being executed?
A: The price hasn’t reached your level yet. Wait or change the price.
Q: Are Stop-loss and Stop the same thing?
A: Yes. Stop order = Stop-loss.
