An order to buy or sell immediately at the best available current price. It is the fastest way to enter or exit a position. In cTrader, a market order ensures you get into the market now, but the exact execution price can vary due to slippage and available liquidity. In high volatility or low liquidity, a market order might be filled in parts or at multiple levels (partial fills) until the full volume is executed. cTrader allows setting a Market Range (slippage cap) if you want to limit how far the price can deviate on execution.
