The main difference between a market order and a limit order is that market orders trigger the immediate purchase or sale of a stock at its current market value, whereas limit orders allow you to delay transactions until the stock meets a specified price.
Market orders are transactions meant to be executed as quickly as possible at the current market price. Limit orders set the maximum or minimum price at which you’re willing to complete the transaction, whether it be a buy or sell.
