This post was originally published on this site

Market order vs limit order vs stop limit, explained by a former NYSE ARCA market maker – the three buttons and what each one really costs.
All three placed live with real money on Coinbase, the maker fee discount, and the post-only switch almost nobody flips.

What you’ll learn: what an order actually is (what, how much, at what price), the market order and the impatience tax – spread, taker fee, slippage – and when paying it is right (emergencies, not entries), the limit order – name your price, collect the maker discount, wait for the market to come to you – plus the queue and the no-promised-fill caveat, the stop limit – the stop price as tripwire and the limit price as the net, used as a stop loss and as a breakout entry, where stops actually go (episode four gives the spot, episode eight shows the pile to avoid), all three orders placed live with real money on Coinbase Advanced Trade, the money moment – same trade executed three ways with three different bills, and the pro switches: post-only (rejected live on camera) and time in force – GTC, good-til-time and IOC. Homework: swap ONE market order for a limit this week, and put a stop behind any unprotected position.
