A Limit order is an order to buy or sell a given asset at a specified (or better) price. A limit order to buy will only execute at the limit price or lower, and a limit order to sell will only execute at the limit price or higher.
Advanced orders are only available on cross margin & have a minimum keeper requirement of 0.01 ETH.
Select the asset you are going to trade in the asset selector drop-down
Choose a side, either long or short
Pick an order type (limit order)
Input your desired Collateral
Enter your limit price in the price field
Input your position size
Click on Place Limit Order
The submission of the limit order is done on-chain, so any margin required to open this order will be earmarked until the order is canceled. The transaction will automatically deposit the 0.01 ETH account requirement, if applicable.
If you want to cancel a limit order before it has been executed, then click the orders tab and hit Cancel on the order that you wish to discard.
You can open multiple limit orders for the same market. You can manage your stop orders (cancel them) on the Orders tab. No fee is imposed unless the order is executed.
