### Order Types
**Market Order:** Executing a market order immediately buys or sells the specified number of shares at the current market price. Market orders are usually filled quickly.
**Limit Order:** A limit order specifies the maximum price you are willing to pay to buy a stock or the minimum price you are willing to accept to sell a stock. Limit orders are only executed if the market price reaches or exceeds the specified price.
**Stop Order:** A stop order is triggered when the stock price reaches a certain level, known as the stop price. Once triggered, the order becomes a market order and is executed immediately. Stop orders can be used to protect against losses or lock in profits.
### Additional Tips

* **Consider using a broker:** A registered broker can provide guidance and assist you with your investment decisions.
