A limit order is a specific instruction to buy or sell a stock at a set price or better. This grants investors the ability to execute trades at their desired prices without the need to constantly monitor market fluctuations.
​

You can apply a limit to either a buy or sell order. For instance, if you purchase a stock setting a limit of $50, the order will be executed only if the price is $50 or lower. Similarly, if you want to sell a stock with a limit of $50, your order will not be executed until the price reaches $50 or higher.

Using a limit order can provide you with greater control over the price at which you execute a trade. This can be particularly helpful during periods of high market volatility.

Limit orders are available on FlexInvest to help you have better control of your investment transactions.
