• Market order: A market order is an order to buy/sell a share at the most profitable
ask/bid prices prevailing at the time the order is matched/executed on an electronic
exchange or reaches the exchange floor (open outcry system).
• Limit order: A limit order specifies a maximum price that the individual will pay to
purchase a share or the minimum he/she will accept to sell it
• Short sale: A short sale is the sale of shares that are not currently owned by the seller,
with the intent of purchasing them later at lower prices. This is done by borrowing the
shares from another investor through a broker
