Bitcoin Market Order Types Explained
Understanding Bitcoin Market Order Types
With Vietnam’s crypto adoption growing at 28% annually (Chainalysis 2025), knowing how to execute trades properly becomes essential. Bitcoin market order types determine how your trades are processed – getting this right can mean the difference between profit and loss.
1. Market Orders: Instant Execution
Like hailing a taxi during rush hour, market orders buy/sell immediately at current prices. Perfect when speed matters, but watch for tiêu chí trượt giá (slippage) during volatility.
- Best for liquid pairs (BTC/USDT)
- Average 0.5-1.5% slippage in Vietnam exchanges
2. Limit Orders: Price Control
Set your desired price like a Vietnamese market vendor refusing low offers. These only execute at your specified price or better.
| Strategy | Vietnam User % |
|---|---|
| Buy below market | 42% |
| Sell above market | 58% |
3. Stop-Loss Orders: Risk Management
Essential for Vietnam’s thị trường biến động (volatile market). Automatically sells if prices drop to your limit, like an emergency exit.
Pro tip: Combine with limit orders for OCO (One-Cancels-Other) strategies.
