A limit order is an instruction to a stockbroker to buy or sell a financial instrument at a specified price or better. On Kite, the trading platform operated by Zerodha, a limit order is placed by selecting “LIMIT” in the order type dropdown and entering the desired price in the price field. Unlike a market order, a limit order will not execute unless the market price reaches the trader’s specified level; it therefore guarantees price but does not guarantee execution.
