For Instance, Mr. X, a client of Fyers, wants to Buy GAIL stocks (LTP ₹150) at say ₹145, i.e., below the current market price, he is required to place a limit order at ₹145. On the contrary, If Mr. X wants to place a Sell order at say ₹155, i.e., above the current market price, he must place a limit order at ₹155.
Note:
If the buy limit price is more than the current market price or the sell limit price is less than the current market price, the order will be executed at the current market price.
If you want to Buy stocks above the current market price or Sell stocks below the current market price, you need to place a Trigger order or Stop-loss Market order (refer to this article).
