A market order is an instruction to buy or sell a CFD in a specified size at the best available market price for this size. It is important to note that a market order can be executed at a price, which is different from quoted at the time it is placed. Once executed, a market order immediately becomes an open trade that can be tracked in the ‘Portfolio’ tab. The market orders can only be placed during the trading hours of the underlying asset. A market order can have Take Profit/Stop Loss orders attached.
