# Order Types & Options

### Supported Order Types

Choose the order type that best fits your trading strategy:

* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Limit Order:**</mark> Place an order at a specific price — ideal for price-sensitive strategies
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Market Order:**</mark> Execute immediately at the best available price — great for speed
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Stop Order (Limit / Market):**</mark> Trigger a buy/sell order once a certain price is reached — protects your position
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Take-Profit / Stop-Loss (TP/SL):**</mark> Define profit and loss targets in advance — the system executes automatically

***

### Advanced Order Options (Pro Mode)

In Pro Mode, you can fine-tune your orders with the following settings:

* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Leverage Setting:**</mark> Apply leverage for perpetual contracts (e.g., 2x, 5x, 10x) to amplify capital efficiency
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Post Only:**</mark> Ensure your order is placed in the book as a maker and not immediately matched — helps earn fee rebates
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Reduce Only:**</mark> Prevents increasing your position size — only used for reducing or closing positions
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Slippage Control:**</mark> Set your maximum acceptable price deviation for order execution
* <mark style="color:$primary;">**Bypass Warnings:**</mark> Confirm and proceed with orders that deviate significantly from current market price

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://qubitdex.gitbook.io/main/trading-on-qubitdex/order-types-and-options.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
