Limit orders are tailored to meet various trading strategies and preferences for risk management.

On platforms like Bitsgap, you have the option to place several types of limit orders such as the Standard Limit Order, Stop-Limit Order, Trailing Stop Limit Order, and Scaled Order.
The Standard Limit Order is straightforward, allowing you to predetermine the price for buying or selling an asset.
The Stop-Limit Order is a hybrid that activates as a limit order once a certain stop price is hit.
The Trailing Stop Limit Order automatically adjusts its limit price in relation to market fluctuations by a set amount or percentage.
Lastly, the Scaled Order incrementally executes trades at progressively improved prices, facilitating smooth entry or exit from positions.
