  Sure! Let me give you an example. Imagine you want to buy Bitcoin at a specific price, but the current market price is higher than what you are willing to pay. In this case, you can place a limit order to buy Bitcoin at your desired price. Once the market price reaches your specified price, the exchange will automatically execute the order. This way, you can ensure that you buy Bitcoin at a price that you find acceptable.

  Absolutely! Here's a real-life scenario: Let's say you have been monitoring the price of Ethereum and you believe that if it drops to $200, it would be a great opportunity to buy. However, you don't have the time to constantly monitor the market. So, you place a limit order to buy Ethereum at $200. When the price reaches $200, the exchange automatically executes the order on your behalf, even if you're not actively watching the market. This allows you to take advantage of price movements without having to constantly monitor the market.

  Certainly! Let me share an example with you. Imagine you are a trader on BYDFi, a popular cryptocurrency exchange. You want to sell your Bitcoin at a specific price, let's say $50,000. However, the current market price is only $48,000. In this case, you can place a limit order to sell your Bitcoin at $50,000. Once the market price reaches your specified price, BYDFi will automatically execute the order for you. This way, you can ensure that you sell your Bitcoin at the desired price, even if you're not actively monitoring the market on BYDFi.
