How to place a limit order
Set your price and wait for the market to come to you.
What is a limit order?
A limit order lets you specify the exact price at which you want to buy or sell shares. Your order sits on the order book until another trader matches it, or you cancel it.
Market orders execute instantly at the best available price.
Placing a limit order
Open a market and switch to the "Limit" tab in the trading panel. Enter your desired price (e.g., $0.45 per share) and the amount of USDC you want to spend. Click "Place Order" to submit it to the order book.

$49.95 @ 45¢ per share
When does it fill?
Your order fills when the market price reaches your limit price. If you placed a buy at $0.45, it fills when someone is willing to sell at $0.45 or lower. Partial fills are possible — you may get some shares before the full order completes.
