Why Order Types Matter in Crypto Trading
Did you know Vietnamese crypto traders executed 28 million orders last quarter? Choosing between limit and market orders (loại lệnh giới hạn vs thị trường) directly impacts your profits. Let’s break down how HIBT’s order types work.
Limit Orders: Precision Trading
Like haggling at a Hanoi market (chợ truyền thống), limit orders let you set exact price targets. Key features:
- You control the execution price
- No surprise slippage
- Best for volatile markets (Vietnam’s BTC prices swung 12% daily in Q2 2025)
Market Orders: Instant Execution
Need immediate action? Market orders work like grabbing a taxi during Saigon rush hour:
- Guaranteed execution
- Higher slippage risk
- Ideal when timing beats price
| Order Type | Avg Fill Time | Price Certainty |
|---|---|---|
| Limit | 2-15 mins | High |
| Market | Instant | Low |

Advanced Strategies for Vietnamese Traders
Combine order types like a phở recipe – each has its role. For long-term positions (đầu tư dài hạn), limit orders protect against volatility. Day traders often mix both – check our advanced trading guide.
When to Use Each Order Type
Choose limit orders when:
- You know your target price
- Trading large volumes (over 5 BTC)
- Markets are highly volatile
Opt for market orders when:
- Speed is critical
- Spread is narrow (under 0.5%)
- Executing small orders
Remember Vietnam’s tiêu chuẩn an ninh blockchain (blockchain security standards) require careful order management. Always verify transaction details before confirming.
