# Limit Order

SquadSwap provides Limit Order for many token pairs on **BNB Smart Chain** and **Base Chain**.

SquadSwap offers two different interfaces for Limit Order transactions: **Normal Mode** and **Advanced Mode.** Users can perform the same transactions in both interfaces.

## Limit Order:

A limit order for crypto tokens allows you to buy or sell at a specific price level. Here's how it works:

* **Buy Limit Order:** Used when you want to buy a crypto token at a lower price than the current market price. For example, if a token is currently trading at $50 and you want to buy it at $45, you would place a buy limit order at $45. The order will be executed automatically when the token's price drops to $45.
* **Sell Limit Order:** Used when you want to sell a crypto token at a higher price than the current market price. For example, if a token is currently trading at $50 and you want to sell it at $55, you would place a sell limit order at $55. The order will be executed automatically when the token's price rises to $55.

### **Steps For Limit Order**

* Select a trading pair you want to trade.
* Choose the action you want to perform — either **Buy** or **Sell**.
* Set your desired price.
* Click **“Place Limit Order”** and wait for the market price to reach the level you specified. Once the market price touches your target, your limit order will be automatically executed.

You cannot place orders to buy at a price more expensive than the market price. Likewise, you cannot place an order to sell at a price lower than the market price. This would be against the limit order logic.

## Advanced Mode

With Advanced Mode, you can access a lot of data from a single screen with services such as detailed chart views and orderbook for your Limit Orders.

You can easily track your open orders, executed orders, order backlog and fee history. You can cancel your open orders at any time with batch transactions.\ <br>
