In a trading environment with high price volatility, traders who use high leverage to hold large positions may face significant risks of liquidation losses. If the insurance fund is depleted, an automatic deleveraging system may be triggered, posing additional risks to other traders.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNJIzBYpPrtHzkV6uNbMrZf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-UWhAd6OOvowebKxoBrNu9wh9sac"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Therefore, <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/">MEXC</a> employs a risk limit mechanism for all trading accounts, using a tiered margin system for risk control, where the leverage multiplier depends on the size of the position; the larger the position, the lower the available leverage. Users can adjust the leverage multiplier themselves, and the initial margin rate is calculated based on the leverage multiplier adjusted by the user.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAMIH9gBAzBAE5dsFJGRzNd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus4Vu5McHmZwo2kHdp4dbXGc"><strong>2.

It is calculated by adding an asset's closing prices over a specified period and dividing the total by the number of periods. As new price data becomes available, the calculation updates, forming a smooth line on the chart.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusx0FTqPRzrjdaO1JLrEqyNy"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbCb4vUEY2mR4tQLTRbAxvc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Prices often fluctuate rapidly during normal market activity, which can make trends difficult to identify. The SMA filters out some of this short-term noise and helps traders see the market's overall direction more clearly.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvxMeY8kmIvzmmYVSd20ght"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusyXwmn7Pfqa5nzHjC9lEp9b"><strong>2.

The following are three of the most commonly used settings:</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusi1IZJKIoYI34slEh2tEAhc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxNk6ARVMAjM7updQqFkpRd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong>20-day SMA (short term):</strong> This reflects roughly one month of price action and responds relatively quickly to price changes. It is commonly used by short-term and swing traders to identify near-term momentum.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKkYlRof8G4W6tXF3AyRCCa"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustOzXV17juUPfS5CurgWmMd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong>50-day SMA (medium term):</strong> This balances responsiveness and stability. It is often used as dynamic support or resistance within a trend and is well suited to medium-term traders.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyg0ETLTGalnAPmj4sMf6Qg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXqhaX8K62k5Z6thSxWnDG6"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong>200-day SMA (long term, or 200 DMA):</strong> This is one of the most closely watched long-term trend indicators among institutional traders. When the price is above the 200-day SMA, the broader market bias is generally bullish. A move below the 200-day SMA is generally considered bearish. The indicator is often viewed as a dividing line between bull and bear markets.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPNwNawnfDrkbnNWNyeO7Jb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9y6cWPW1j7GVqoe9EcBtAc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">As a general rule, shorter holding periods call for shorter SMA periods, while longer holding periods call for longer SMA periods. Beginners may want to start with longer-period moving averages because they smooth short-term price fluctuations but respond more slowly to changes in trend.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXMmS1xJcTYCwItEcxnLM3e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus48hYzrgV1smuWcF7N5UFqb"><strong>3.

When the price remains below the SMA and the line slopes downward, the market is in a downtrend, suggesting that traders remain cautious or consider exiting their positions.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBa7ZO6klUVv3m01NgEAoNg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 style="text-align:left" class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxuseZThJhIMlOhhaWMKRdphGh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.2 Use dynamic support and resistance</span></h3><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusEIcdt9CsEAsSSL6ikHQ5fb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9xXYxx4oWta37YNAayiWWe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In addition to indicating trend direction, an SMA can serve as a reference for potential dynamic support or resistance. During an uptrend, a pullback toward the SMA may find support and rebound, indicating a potential entry opportunity. During a downtrend, a rally toward the SMA may encounter resistance and reverse, providing a possible signal to reduce a position or exit. Longer-period moving averages generally provide stronger support and resistance than shorter-period averages.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusGaOTVn8bft4qik3CUCIcuc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 style="text-align:left" class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxus0ukAywqdlAR1gUHn1lSY3b"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.3 Use golden cross and death cross singals</span></h3><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvDooxGMo8PS2Bu3rIN3l2f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusjDtGAG1VZ4WsfWvdkm8RDh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Moving average crossovers are among the most widely recognized trading signals. A golden cross occurs when a short-term moving average, such as the 50-day SMA, crosses above a long-term moving average, such as the 200-day SMA. It is generally viewed as a bullish signal that may indicate the strengthening of an uptrend. Conversely, a death cross occurs when the short-term moving average crosses below the long-term moving average and is viewed as a bearish signal. Rising trading volume around a crossover may provide additional confirmation.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustc3O2h8MHj2fSHdr7PruPf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusmLVFhw7292nOXS0HFevoeb"><strong>4.

It generally moves more smoothly and responds more slowly to recent price changes than the EMA, and is often better suited to identifying medium- and long-term trends. The <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/how-to-use-the-exponential-moving-average-indicator-in-trading-416907527621799936">Exponential Moving Average (EMA)</a> gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive and better suited to short-term trading, although it is also more likely to produce false signals.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusCaCJtQWCPENP5Ei5FczFMf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyvvP1LpPIVbXU0W9eeEuvc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In general, intraday and short-term traders tend to prefer the EMA, while medium- and long-term traders and beginners may find the SMA more suitable. Neither indicator is inherently better. The right choice depends on your trading timeframe and strategy.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus6Y3kIHn8haxWb4kCDKUiae"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus545DxkA2QiC79h7J79OEWf"><strong>5.

A price above the SMA suggests a bullish bias, while a price below it suggests a bearish bias. You can also use the SMA as dynamic support or resistance and combine it with golden cross and death cross signals to help time entries and exits.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusP1CSPYJVuBXqJi7mjvEarf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 style="text-align:left" class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusoARCwwgjVCXXenNRGJkG9n"><span style="font-size: 16px;">6.2 Which moving average settings should I use?</span></h3><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrHDDcTGEAWD3HFYPktb6wb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustGRSRtpc2nOrms6xjfrPnb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Short-term traders often use a 10-day or 20-day SMA, medium-term traders commonly use a 50-day SMA, and long-term trend analysis often relies on a 200-day SMA.

Unlike a simple average price, VWAP assigns greater weight to price levels with higher trading volume. It therefore provides a more accurate representation of the market's average trading cost and perceived fair value.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AAMCdoFzfo2QHZxG6raufEcRsrf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-GazadZeTboceUAxO6bGu4ISRsTf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Institutional investors commonly use VWAP as a benchmark for evaluating the execution quality of large orders. Individual traders can use it to assess whether the current market price is relatively high or low. A price below VWAP suggests that sellers are in control and that the asset is trading below its average price. A price above VWAP indicates that buyers have the advantage and that market sentiment is relatively bullish.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Gxbndc1IaogcBixTqfDuS4Bps5g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-H052dyLgnoKWFFxc7NauJ14RsFc"><strong>2.

As it is calculated using cumulative historical data, it is a lagging indicator, and the lag may become more noticeable as the trading session progresses. In a strong one-directional trend, pullback opportunities may also be limited, reducing the applicability of VWAP strategies. Standard VWAP resets daily and is therefore not suitable for long-term analysis.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-HDGxdTSd8oXRV5xUrpzuPbjdsnb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-AD3adDLCloi0CXx2hOsumjkAsef"><strong>5.

If no matching orders exist, the limit order will remain in the order book waiting to be executed until it is either fully filled or manually canceled by you.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBdAFj7yig89ZQX6chjzKDc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZZAh5cvxCEGrSQCFvMCEug"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Key concepts of a Futures limit order include the entry price (the specific price set to open a position), position size (the number of contracts or amount planned for trading), leverage (the multiplier amplifying both profits and risks), and take-profit/stop-loss (TP/SL) functions (where the system automatically places closing orders at preset prices once the initial trigger condition is met).</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusUqlYO2gpE9OWElyuKtdDqe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusSbGsKezxlQJzroHmjB6Bwd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Your Futures Trading Journey</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/Futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAYoZVCDXlfs4Lakk1QU1fg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus6wNcYACNNtXQtWOIj8Iqcb"><strong>2. What is the difference between limit orders and market orders in Futures trading?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus2JRfOe2isx2zqrUZDZUoTd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusOk8TcegBKXCNXnCNH2BtCc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders come with a price restriction. Limit orders prioritize price over speed and may not fill due to market volatility, making them suitable for traders who wish to control entry costs or wait for an ideal price level. In contrast, market orders have no price restrictions, offer fast, and almost guaranteed execution, making them ideal for traders who prioritize speed and need to open or close positions quickly.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7TjZOzhuvINt3rDdq8er0e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushCuYGlWqApAoxGDfvidvne"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Simply put, Futures limit orders are better suited for users who want precise control over their entry price, helping them avoid chasing highs when going long or blindly opening short positions at lows, though they carry the risk of non-execution. Market orders guarantee immediate execution, making them suitable for traders needing to enter or exit positions rapidly during periods of intense market volatility.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuscZwMAamw6jBnd6UiUtmiLb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusoQHlNEdwaPRED54DrX6IEh"><strong>3. Why has my Futures limit order not been filled after placement?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrybukEhMYeLQzrpQ8oMfZe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusIsBqslH4ijOKfxQftdCfdf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Unfilled limit orders are typically caused by the following reasons:</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuskSpsVJWx95OJgWWhIh0hFh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1) Price has not been reached: If your limit buy price is set below the current market price, or your limit sell price is set above the current market price, the order must wait for the market price to reach your specified level before it can be executed.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusMaXf52rW8Pto5UvxajuUld"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Insufficient market liquidity: Even if the price reaches your specified level, insufficient buying or selling pressure may prevent the order from being fully filled, causing it to remain pending in the order book.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusR8ruBIzwHfvihwvRYlGM4c"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Post-Only order mode: If you used the "Post-Only" order type, the system will automatically cancel the order if it would immediately match with an existing order in the book. This ensures your order remains a maker order (adding liquidity) so you can benefit from lower maker fees.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusC3pVYK8pPAq5sMR2QbvXfb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxuslnyqCrRGCeNY2xg0k6YEkb"><strong>4. Why is my limit order only partially filled?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusnFWWjYLC9krakfmHbhZLkc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxust8nn6oQvk69890wiBSLtUb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Due to the high volatility and uncertainty of the crypto Futures market, your limit orders may experience partial fills.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusiMkAvYVFZWgn1480IEDUKe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPWMETh3IpVkxBWpnovfRle"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Insufficient market liquidity is the most common cause. When the price reaches your specified limit, if the volume of opposing orders at that price level is insufficient to fully absorb your order, only a portion will be executed, while the remainder stays in the order book waiting for further matches.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszc9cLnigCODHS0Tx2cHhgg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrpXwPqGFgbMEi0jnSgxVGh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Price wicks (or "shadows") during highly volatile periods can also lead to partial fills. Since crypto Futures markets have no daily price limits, prices can fluctuate drastically in an instant, forming sharp wicks that briefly touch extreme levels before quickly rebounding. If your limit order is placed near such a wick, only a tiny fraction may execute at the exact moment the price touches that level; as the price rapidly retraces, the remaining portion of your order will fail to fill.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusJ3vK7KeJFYEzhpMGmUIfXg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusNa1Xrbj2ySID5MfGFe5hnf"><strong>5. Why does the fill price of my Futures limit order differ from my expectation?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDs9wNgYV3JBoRdyqt83z8f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuscCGcwmvlKiiEgj445VgrRb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A limit order guarantees that the fill price will be no lower than your preset value, but the actual fill price may be better. For example, if you set a limit buy price of 100 USDT to go long, the actual fill price might be 99.5 USDT. This means you established your long position at a lower cost. This is the normal operating mechanism of a limit order and works to your advantage.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZ1DIY4dbLUWJmjQxG3r2Nh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus4p9LwsyF9pBxCQtkqV0u7b"><strong>6.

For instance, setting a stop-loss trigger price for a long position above the current market price could cause the order to trigger immediately or fail to execute as intended.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushqaD9DijGM6EYTbMhW72ug"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusuciOy6xmlZIrBia5N6pm6f"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is particularly important to note that for TP/SL orders preset when opening a position via a limit order: the system only submits the closing order based on the preset price and filled quantity after the initial opening order has been fully executed. If the calculated order value upon triggering is less than the minimum allowable order size, the order will become invalid, potentially preventing the position from closing automatically.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNi7zE0B3NNOMjCYCPXIehf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusrTZ5ZUdAoHpHLMGmkH4had"><strong>7.

If you set a limit buy order above the current market price or a limit sell order below the current market price in an attempt to chase the price, the system may treat your order as a taker order, subjecting it to the higher fee rate.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK5HYmFXYbxH0WwGR54cdWg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusUyrMMBCfmd72ikSGZNaRcG"><strong>8. What are the risks of using Futures limit orders during highly volatile markets?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxAAyXL13hHweQO70LNE6Hx"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLgMnRLAjdhCPZYaRZuBRvg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">During extreme market conditions, Futures limit orders face the risk of price wicks. This occurs when the price momentarily touches a specific level to execute your order and then rapidly rebounds, causing you to open a position at an unfavorable price. Since Futures trading involves leverage, losses in such scenarios can be significantly amplified.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusgCZyOsX15tGaADJe6RQCyg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusJkqAYIrYqK65mjfilkm0db"><span style="font-size: 16px;">We recommend that in highly volatile markets, if you need to open or close a position urgently, you should prioritize using market orders. If you need precise control over your entry price, use limit orders, but ensure you set your order prices reasonably based on order book depth. Additionally, always set up TP/SL orders to effectively manage position risk.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusClh4Q8y9uAFIXjsQXAcyld"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusikBuB9EBHzgJl6NlTEFhfB"><strong>9.

MEXC Futures Market Order FAQs

In MEXC Futures trading, market orders are instantly matched with the best counterparty prices on the order book, ensuring traders can rapidly open or close positions. Market orders are particularly suitable for scenarios requiring immediate entry or urgent position closing, making them highly common in volatile futures markets.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus0H99yzwBViiMassCC0mJed"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslztpOFQlcZbwCn9sRZtBbb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Your Futures Journey</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszUDEAmHoVbvuNH8L4kCblf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxuswxqS0aoaoEYfPxhwVuMNwf"><strong>2.

The system executes the order immediately at the current market price. While traders cannot specify the exact fill price, they are guaranteed rapid order execution. This method is ideal for trend following, emergency stop-losses, or situations requiring immediate market entry.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAcXji0B7B2WELeNUiHmrPg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusof0BUZEQafBdcLMkM5w23d"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders prioritize price control. Traders can pre-set their ideal execution price, and the order will only be executed when the market price reaches that level. This method is suitable for counter-trend trading, placing orders at support/resistance levels, or for traders who wish to precisely control their entry costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusdiBRKVJFN0uVmnw3zUU23b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVddZlDbTut86srlCIrqJOc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In short: Market orders guarantee execution but not price. Limit orders guarantee price but not execution. Traders should flexibly choose based on their specific strategic needs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus4NzaG6DtK3NbYEhVFPh0hu"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus14k37HtsmQIwbftMwANEid"><strong>3.

However, if they use a limit order and wait for it to be filled (acting as a maker), they may pay zero fees (depending on current maker fee promotions). For frequent traders, strategically combining market orders and limit orders can effectively reduce overall trading costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusQRC8OCepBgh9Fxj5fhKFWe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusgJQKSvgCm9iO1N8eCkRPbh"><strong>4. What is slippage? Why does it occur with market orders?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusSOqQtuYe7MtmZkuZ1GJVqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusopb0W6oV3GUgeTklazPHwh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Slippage refers to the difference between the expected price at the time of order placement and the actual fill price. When a trader submits a market order, the system immediately seeks the best counterparty price on the order book for matching. However, since market prices can fluctuate within milliseconds, the final fill price may differ slightly from the expected price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus4rNfbJHOuD61OBA18SJtug"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWuixirEWdqAh2kGJa06Y7g"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The primary causes of slippage are twofold. During major news releases or rapid market movements, prices can swing significantly in a short period, causing the execution price to deviate from the expectation. Likewise, when the order size is large relative to the available market depth, a market order will consume multiple price levels on the order book sequentially. This results in an average fill price that differs from the initial best bid/ask price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLLq8dHwOTsDW5voPpll0vg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusl1t8DZ7X3z5SQNqALan46b"><span style="font-size: 16px;">To mitigate slippage risk, it is advisable to avoid using large market orders during periods of low liquidity or high volatility. Instead, consider using limit orders to lock in your price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusd0oORkljpFtLK7cT2NPSDb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus3kaZg8T8iGzXf5rGBkzp5b"><strong>5. Can market orders be partially filled or fail to fill completely?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK7K0STSWTKk1AO3EunyPqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuskU6vIsIiY9cd6z1Dg41hsb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes, under certain circumstances, market orders may only be partially filled. When market depth is insufficient, the market order cannot instantly consume all the required liquidity. Consequently, only a portion of the order is executed, while the remaining part may be canceled by the system if the price moves beyond acceptable limits.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusOnakdRz7aXGP0VwqLHBCFd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushWMtNdo9XxoQtvTTiyejYe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is important to note that if the total value of a single market order is too large, the unfilled portion may be canceled. Therefore, when trading Futures pairs with lower liquidity, it is recommended to split large orders into several smaller ones or use limit orders to ensure complete execution.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusjF70C49vZk1LZXXlcvTuPg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusGYFciO0QDhw0ZUTg1kaHce"><strong>6. In what scenarios are market orders most suitable?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusYXF7OyfyoJP4U02CnF7Q8b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfSFZsWJXE2cRjwgZtQ6Mw4"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Market orders are particularly effective in the following scenarios:</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVTJFSpNVTy6s9HiAIfYDSe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1) Trend Following: When technical analysis indicates a price breakout at a key level, market orders allow for rapid position entry to seize the opportunity.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxG8vE1xw0jOcA0c7jbUhKh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Emergency Stop-Loss: When the market moves rapidly against your position, using a market order ensures immediate liquidation to control losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus8fhQzyYxSNJXTRJitWGJVh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Quick Profit-Taking: When a position reaches its target profit, a market order guarantees an immediate exit to lock in gains.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTTEQEG7vZjkJtr98sYnR4f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusp59PHqRdvREnWrmlOqOpjf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For scalping, day trading, or any strategy requiring instant reaction, market orders are an indispensable tool. However, it is crucial to note that market orders sacrifice price certainty in exchange for execution speed. Traders must fully understand this trade-off.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK9WvUDAsvSlsbxfGITvPPf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfvv7XrXr9dUuVLg7L82Wgh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Note: Scalping trading is a strategy aimed at profiting from a series of small price changes over very short timeframes. Unlike day trading or swing trading, where positions may be held for hours or days, scalpers often hold positions for only seconds. This requires scalpers to monitor price movements closely to maximize decision-making accuracy.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbcJrMaMCdzLNu6WGhza2zf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusXCK41MtcuehxzCkCZsDw3L"><strong>7. What should be noted when using market orders during extreme market conditions?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslRwY10wYkelj7Wwdb6cu0b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusdGGgrQDWDDhuIv79TbJcpg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">During periods of sharp cryptocurrency price volatility or insufficient market liquidity, trading with market orders can carry significant risks. In extreme conditions, slippage can expand dramatically, causing the execution price to deviate significantly from your expectation. When using market orders to stop losses during violent fluctuations, the actual execution price may be far worse than your intended stop-loss level, leading to larger-than-expected losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-FUwhduVIUo4ozlxN5H0uhkS0sMf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-RfnjdnQJyodL0lx2taxuaqJ4scb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In high-leverage trading, extreme volatility combined with market orders can lead to unexpected forced liquidations. If your position's margin is insufficient to cover losses, the platform will trigger a liquidation mechanism. Executing a market order to close a position during such turbulence may result in fills at highly unfavorable prices, exacerbating losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusa8JeUqYlj5NcZETwwmSIpb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusMsHPr8k4cIj33bvBKwEayc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In high-volatility environments, it is advisable to prioritize using limit orders to control costs and to set leverage ratios reasonably to minimize the risk of liquidation.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszXT80vv8Xoda4oINAB8Swf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusARE4mhqV3hFOhG2F2OYAtt"><strong>8.

This figure does not include costs such as trading fees, slippage, or funding fees. The realized PNL is determined by the actual fill price when closing the position. All related fees must be deducted to determine the final profit or loss.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusu8Pf9EQSNzJ7fP8L5iH17b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKENmXkYSPMxuCKUGi4aZDd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For example, if a user holds a long position with a displayed unrealized PNL of 120 USDT, but only receives 108 USDT after closing the position (resulting in the realized PNL), the difference is likely due to trading fees and funding fee payments. Therefore, when evaluating trading performance, the actual amount received should be considered the final result.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusG6BdcgHUagmcY6EQ6TizFg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus7wZfWvwAyiT9JqHYyly4Se"><strong>10.

However, since the execution price cannot be controlled, there is a risk of slippage. It is recommended that beginners start with small trade sizes when using market orders to gradually familiarize themselves with market volatility characteristics.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuseDsOQ2WTIOYWH8WjYdFKjg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusH1E48fQE76TrGUN1NvnOce"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders, meanwhile, require setting a specific price, making the operation slightly more complex, but they allow for precise cost control. For trades where immediate execution is not critical, limit orders are a more prudent choice.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVZp5F9emC38gNW0bFLAYsc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbmFL0YKVOXYOnAS0ZGoeNg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In actual trading, both order types have their advantages. It is advisable to flexibly combine them based on the specific situation. Use market orders for emergency position closing or chasing fast-moving trends, and use limit orders for planning entries or aiming to reduce costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDLEViEnwMkc2XmRSYMY8uc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusjncTC9JNmuWqEQUUcclLic"><strong>11.

What is a trigger order on MEXC Futures?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusU5xs1hRvEG42bMacVNRTUg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9kPM8xUCSyaFCNhcpgtjdc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A trigger order is a strategic order type provided by MEXC. Users can pre-set a trigger price, order price, and quantity. When the market price reaches the trigger price, the system automatically places an order at the pre-set order price. This order type helps traders achieve goals such as taking profit, stopping loss, closing positions, or opening positions based on trends.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusuGtQFW9c0Q6VM7yZCQqrvh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDgBckM144VrM5tS0iEZbXb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Compared to other order types, a key feature of trigger orders is that no positions or margin are frozen before the order is successfully triggered. This means your funds remain available for other trading operations until the trigger occurs, improving capital efficiency.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusp3j45rs2JCdebjty7EFTve"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus8gGXpbvRQgrWSZT9VRguAc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Futures Trading</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7X7rljvYHxB07qN8bNQ29g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusx02KHxYqQayDwerR35BCah"><strong>2. What types of trigger prices are available for trigger orders?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFwcyTSexqD9Tb9TzMryyjc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-NSLCdxbiYoSS6Px1HZFuVeAysIe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In MEXC Futures trading, trigger orders support three types of trigger prices: last price, fair price, and index price. </span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-TRBQdAATBoRLF3xpaInuiFI7sUh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-RoDtdzuLVoHIYtxdXilu4P4Asxh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Last price refers to the immediate transaction price in the MEXC Futures order book, reflecting real-time market trading conditions. The fair price is calculated using weighted price data from major exchanges. It reflects the true market price more fairly and effectively prevents user losses caused by abnormal fluctuations on a single platform. Index price is derived by selecting spot prices from multiple major exchanges and calculated based on different weights.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-PVIbd5KcqoMh7LxZUE5uL4ETs8c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-N8a3dwF75oIrS3xIMbpudMSLsEg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Choosing different trigger price types can meet various trading strategy needs. For example, using the fair price as a trigger condition can avoid abnormal triggers caused by short-term price manipulation.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusA7uO7aOpir5cPHn4tlVBVf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusYgct1ilqIJHHb8Ua7de5ce"><strong>3. The market has reached the trigger price, so why hasn't my trigger order been executed?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLQMrEMCMbudgTSV2nKHnTf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWLXggQ7ah9Se3hJAIzubqf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is important to note that reaching the trigger price does not guarantee the order will be executed. The execution process of a trigger order occurs in two stages. First is the trigger stage, where the market price meets the trigger condition, the system activates the order. Second, the order placement stage, where the system sends the order to the market at the pre-set order price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustU7r9jvu7Ug89F8dA83HVb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus5S5dNm0D8lo3zwWlt8heGf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Common reasons why a trigger order may fail to trigger or execute include the following. The market price reached the trigger price but has not yet reached the order price. Likewise, there may be insufficient margin causing order placement failure. The position quantity may exceed limits. The trading pair could be in a non-trading state, or there might be network anomalies or system maintenance. Additionally, during extreme market conditions, violent price fluctuations may prevent the order from being triggered or executed immediately.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvM9R7kb1vExHPlkg8vEG3b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVEKxxWB9ryG7YgksypFqSb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Once triggered, the resulting limit order behaves like a standard limit order and does not guarantee execution. If the market price moves rapidly, the limit order may not be filled at the pre-set price. Any unfilled limit orders will appear in the current orders list, where you can view and manage them at any time.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusq06VIqp8owC6xESwie7ozb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusCM9iuycWDAwP76RpehGCVP"><strong>4.

It is recommended to set the order price slightly below the trigger price, or simply select a market order. This ensures rapid execution once triggered. For example, if you hold a BTC long position and want to stop loss if the price drops to 39,000 USDT, set the trigger price to 39,000 USDT and the order price to 38,950 USDT, or choose market order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus91Qu5T0tCr0qQ5stD1hLLe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusC2DZj3LWrFPCEQUPO81Sog"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For stop-loss buy scenarios, set the trigger price at your stop-loss level. The order price should be set slightly above the trigger price. For example, if you hold a BTC short position and want to stop loss if the price rises to 41,000 USDT, set the trigger price to 41,000 USDT and the order price to 41,050 USDT.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushixiisH9YgcoObKOCNszzb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZkkIfwZocH8GuEifBLYrEh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For breakout long, also known as "buying the dip" scenarios, when you anticipate a significant upward trend after the price breaks through a key level, set the trigger price at that breakout level. For the order price, choose a market order or a limit price slightly higher than the trigger price to ensure entry.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBcIejRBg3dl9sccZr7D8Eh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxussLLdHbk3XlPTxPI4ZAILHf"><strong>5.

However, the downside is that limit orders may fail to execute during market volatility. This option is suitable for situations where strict requirements exist for the execution price and market volatility is relatively stable.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVKsWCdmojkCKXqEXoIsBsc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusq1mK3B07PhU5sOea1tZUkg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">When selecting a market order, the system will execute the order quickly at the current best market price once triggered, offering fast execution speed and high certainty. However, in highly volatile markets, significant slippage may occur, resulting in a deviation between the actual fill price and the expected price. This is suitable for situations requiring rapid position liquidation or stop-loss execution where speed takes precedence over price precision.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus4yKCJwbVdsWlAORqc8U3sc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAVlXsFRt2bhUEjN4Eo1Eae"><span style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC offers a price protection feature that effectively prevents losses caused by abnormal triggering of TP/SL orders during periods of extreme market volatility.

In such cases, if the gap between the trigger price and the actual market price is too large, the order may fail to execute normally.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus1gCr1ebwxhSZyXQLpv0dSc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusA5H1bjLmcG9eAtrjwlHoQc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Here are a few suggestions to mitigate the risks associated with price gaps. Appropriately increase the distance between the trigger price and the current market price to allow room for volatility. For TP/SL orders, prioritize using market orders to ensure rapid execution once triggered. Also, periodically check and adjust untriggered orders to ensure the trigger conditions still align with current market conditions.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFYDaBCyWx851UQxhFUb6Jd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus4ET4SFU3GCbWujNkxqGYnc"><strong>7.

Therefore, it is recommended to ensure that sufficient margin is reserved in your account when setting up a trigger order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusmRMrO3FiOE8xwWIsylrnsb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusE1vWyurYgjXFohJoBmouWh"><strong>8.

Traders are advised to thoroughly understand the operational mechanisms of trigger orders and use them judiciously in alignment with their trading strategies to achieve a more efficient Futures trading experience.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLB1FRnUirENDSeBfbUxMTh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusBaFrESqaAbPbekhQ8Bfqqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Recommended Reading</span></h3><ul start="1" class="list-bullet1"><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-JoCydpdcroFUwTx7mj5uZrxusXd" data-list="bullet"><div><a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-limit-order-faqs-318919712778827776" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Limit Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-DMBIdeGrVoQUI5x3kQKuKQZlsVh" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-market-order-faqs-318921954751756288" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Market Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-IoNgd3uFlowhDcxrI3Duckr1sxh" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-chase-limit-order-faqs-318923114392927232" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Chase Limit Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusMyO6knnafTXsJUHGOEdp8d" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-trailing-stop-order-faqs-318927297691072512" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Trailing Stop Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusYJuhx6Q5eZOcvzsfXJS2Vd" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-post-only-faqs-318928276943616000" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Post-Only FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuscq3n3fRSF13KBy3TBbrxYe" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/faq-on-index-price-fair-price-and-last-price-7950960183961" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">FAQ on Index Price, Fair Price, and Last Price</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusqWmMWIlFC93IoKuhLfPnKo" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/time-in-force-tif-for-futures-trading-305427906242034688" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">Time in Force (TIF) for Futures Trading: A Complete Guide</a></div></li></ul><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusUlB4yRxm716UvXO1LZ9gab"><br></div></div>

On the MEXC platform, this order mode is exclusively available under hedge mode, offering traders a method that balances execution speed with price control.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ZCl1d19F9oBJsKxk16WunBgBscd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-SSkxdvsJuoouQWxfWPsuY5Iis7h"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Simply put, when you place a chase limit order, the system automatically tracks the top of the order book and continuously updates your order price. Unlike traditional limit orders that wait for the market price to reach your set level, a chase limit order actively "chases" the market price, significantly improving execution efficiency.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusO5GDXeIeGS8tdjcCO4rgdb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusz7E64kUHtXG3mSPIqXx17f"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Your Futures Journey</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus2x9eOG3E4D4dyMfniodf5e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusVTiwuxDDVLjDXvY42PkPWg"><strong>2.

This maximizes transaction speed, eliminating the need for traders to wait long periods for price pullbacks.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9Z3EKlNrUSBf5BTowj5XLg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDHKkJcq3br0P3w25s0e0Qb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Seizing Opportunities: During periods of rapid market volatility, traders can buy or sell instantly to capture trading opportunities driven by price movements. This prevents missing out on trends due to a significant gap between a static limit price and the current market price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslmN9jXhibBOz0hGEHKrf7e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyZkswl09w0d4gUs4gr6J2f"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Fee Savings: Since chase limit orders are typically executed as Maker orders rather than Taker orders, traders can often enjoy lower fee rates.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTpHtx2B88H80DMvq1KfoIR"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusxNosJqvyVCKDgCqgk5W5Uh"><strong>3. How is the execution price of a chase limit order determined?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusebhHQpOSowyxj7UnhRfKS4"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusr4QTAQsc0leghc0t8LCuog"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The execution price of a chase limit order depends on the chase price setting method you select. On the MEXC platform, the chase price defaults to the Level 1 order book price. This means that when placing a buy order, the order price tracks the best bid price. When placing a sell order, the order price tracks the best ask price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKUqN6PZn7GOLMMQIxsjKNb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszl4Q6f9TBkLJoh2Kc2PfLf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Once the order is submitted, the system places a limit order based on the current order book price. As the order book price changes. Any portion of the order that can be executed at the new price will be filled immediately. The remaining unfilled quantity will be re-quoted at the last price. This cycle continues until the entire order is filled or manually canceled.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKYNneQTMtJCn39qFWLLste"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus0LqF6fPfd8URCljavn66Ig"><strong>4.

For buys, the execution price could be higher than the initial order book price. For sells, the execution price could be lower than expected.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuso9Q7dVUHYEDIfZj6xPkLHb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus6wD71cblxEIBowcrxMZSAd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Slippage Risk: In extreme market conditions with violent price fluctuations, even with a maximum chase distance set, there is a risk of partial fills or no fills at all. Furthermore, significant slippage, where the actual execution price deviates substantially from the expected price at the moment of ordering, can still occur.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusOW08QNHfiD5JIC0unF0fyc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbVt3ysSAL0p7AbiBVjnend"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Order Modification Restrictions: Chase limit orders generally do not support parameter modification after placement. If you need to adjust the price settings, order quantity, or maximum chase distance, you must first cancel the existing order and place a new one.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusIwulV7fiOjfHQ3pUA00RZg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxush258Jd457MLW5ZdvhmSKDd"><strong>5. What is the maximum chase distance and how is it set?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNOfgUwGvAnoukTc3Lcf4wh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVwhZvOWiC9yRcybgI1fJQf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The maximum chase distance is a crucial protection mechanism in chase limit orders, designed to limit the range within which the system tracks the price. When the gap between the current market price and your initial order price reaches the set maximum chase distance, the system will automatically cancel your order. This prevents unfavorable executions caused by prices deviating significantly from your entry point.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXxcsPu2j8aMJtBjtFMySYc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZuDVDGQEPZRuWmC0oZtYSh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The maximum chase distance can be set as a specific numerical value or a percentage. For example, if you set the maximum chase distance for a buy order to 100 USDT, and the best bid price rises from an initial 40,000 USDT to exceed 40,100 USDT, chasing will automatically stop. Any unfilled portion will be canceled and will no longer chase the price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusW3TnLNBi3TZebMjtu3g3Kb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusm2PFfZcM55eW5EJ218XuDb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Based on the maximum chase distance and the current order book price, the system calculates the highest chase price. For buy orders, the chase limit order is canceled when the last price is greater than or equal to the highest chase buy price. For sell orders, the chase limit order is canceled when the last price is less than or equal to the highest chase sell price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusn7th11zeu2yi4n3OdOcQed"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" data-type="image" data-ace-gallery-json="{&quot;items&quot;:[{&quot;uuid&quot;:&quot;2ff15948-7709-461b-93e9-d4752a8065c0&quot;,&quot;height&quot;:1468,&quot;width&quot;:2938,&quot;currHeight&quot;:1468,&quot;currWidth&quot;:2938,&quot;natrualHeight&quot;:1468,&quot;natrualWidth&quot;:2938,&quot;pluginName&quot;:&quot;imageUpload&quot;,&quot;scale&quot;:1,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https%3A%2F%2Finternal-api-drive-stream.larksuite.com%2Fspace%2Fapi%2Fbox%2Fstream%2Fdownload%2Fpreview%2FR3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue%2F%3Fpreview_type%3D16&quot;,&quot;file_token&quot;:&quot;R3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue&quot;,&quot;image_type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:966358,&quot;comments&quot;:[]}]}" class="image-uploaded gallery old-record-id-doxusByHX5VFDcNtxWPkm4lqFlS"><img src="https://mexc-rainbown-activityimages.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com/banner/F20260306171059654ZByZRiZhmwnvbS.png" data-single-block="true" data-snapshot="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" data-suite="eyJmaWxlVG9rZW4iOiJSM1RwYkVSTEVvcWhwNnhaSVdEdUF4eDFzdWUiLCJvYmpUeXBlIjoiZG9jeCIsIm9ialRva2VuIjoiZG94dXNCeUhYNVZGRGNOdHhXUGttNGxxRmxTIiwib3JpZ2luU3JjIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9pbnRlcm5hbC1hcGktZHJpdmUtc3RyZWFtLmxhcmtzdWl0ZS5jb20vc3BhY2UvYXBpL2JveC9zdHJlYW0vZG93bmxvYWQvcHJldmlldy9SM1RwYkVSTEVvcWhwNnhaSVdEdUF4eDFzdWUvP3ByZXZpZXdfdHlwZT0xNiJ9" data-src="https://internal-api-drive-stream.larksuite.com/space/api/box/stream/download/all/R3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue/?mount_node_token=doxusByHX5VFDcNtxWPkm4lqFlS&amp;mount_point=docx_image" data-width="2938" data-height="1468" data-lark-image-uri="drivetoken://R3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue" data-lark-image-width="2938" data-lark-image-height="1468" data-host-from-cloud="true" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 12px; font-size: 16px; width: 750px;"></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusgpNj4jzKAjhqiMWonph90c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusgJcg6C4bFuJmm7N0uaW0ec"><strong>6. What trading scenarios are suitable for chase limit orders?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrjGKJMvUz9bKPSdKuOOMRb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvTrfooRoRd0TOJz0AJ0sXc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Chase limit orders are particularly well-suited for fast-moving market conditions, allowing traders to pursue quick execution while setting price ceilings or floors to prevent excessive slippage. Here are three typical application scenarios:</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWWUqeP0ztpTQMizUorqTgd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusaoe1FSLNWHdjK0cqVX0sif"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1) When the market price breaks through key resistance or support levels, traders often want to enter quickly to capture the trend but worry about the significant slippage associated with market orders. In this case, using a chase limit order allows for rapid position opening while maintaining control over entry costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusiFICmYSgkHdSOM6v1JXXOh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxBwsQqj8Tptt0N5kMihI4c"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) In short-term trading, opportunities can vanish in an instant. A chase limit order helps traders establish positions swiftly during rapid price fluctuations, avoiding the risk of missing the optimal entry point that often occurs when waiting for a traditional limit order to fill.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXiwCTom5ChC1YnGSsVtZzh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus3XGMMAuPKszoudk5kxBUFg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) When executing large-volume orders, traders need to minimize wait times without sacrificing price quality.

If you need to adjust any order parameters, you must first cancel the current order and then place a new chase limit order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfbmlHR8PNjYgywAUvIAmfc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyYvhvNUU0H233s7zveMoob"><span style="font-size: 16px;">This design is primarily intended to ensure the system executes the tracking logic stably and efficiently. Since the price of a chase limit order updates frequently in response to market conditions, allowing simultaneous parameter modifications by users could lead to system conflicts or delays. Therefore, it is recommended that traders carefully confirm all parameters before placing an order to ensure they align with their trading strategy.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuskV2zPags9Fg5NSPOn26XQF"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxuseZRDi2wwK0HmRueeZ2Pfnf"><strong>9. What are the differences between chase limit orders and other order types?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusuxINupH0ZsShzdwPojxY4T"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxussByhtOZjuFNn5TmfRy5ZEe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders require the user to set a fixed price. The order only executes when the market price reaches this specific level. Pros include precise cost control and zero slippage, while cons include the fact that they may require a long waiting time, and execution is not guaranteed. Chase limit orders automatically track the market price (order book), resulting in faster execution. However, the final execution price carries a degree of uncertainty compared to a fixed limit order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK7cd2GCoxQj2jiHtslV1af"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBunjizVc94re0735CFFuye"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Market orders execute immediately at the current best available market price. They enjoy the fastest execution speed, but can result in significant slippage during periods of high volatility. Chase limit orders also aim for quick execution but do so via a limit order mechanism. They allow users to set a maximum chase distance as a protective measure, thereby offering lower slippage risk compared to pure market orders.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus6oKoLYLo12CN9TpcgnNdJf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7qwAoJL6xJqpEe1bQiTMzb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Trigger orders involve pre-setting a trigger price. The order is only submitted to the market once the market price reaches this trigger condition. They are suitable for planning entry or exit points in advance and do not occupy margin before being triggered. Chase limit orders begin execution immediately after placement, making them more suitable for scenarios requiring instant market entry.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9FC95UMkyfdl9L20nvH4pe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxustIme3kZIzn18Wh1kLxhjLf"><strong>10.

This approach enables lower-cost, higher-efficiency trading experiences during position building. Beginner traders are advised to thoroughly understand the chase limit order mechanism before practicing with small capital amounts. Gradually familiarize yourself with its characteristics before integrating it into actual trading strategies.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLBqYUx3C4hvDJ1Xsbmbnzb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusvM6vGbIr1Qw3wCpVSLCKsg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Recommended Reading:</span></h3><ul start="1" class="list-bullet1"><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWGT0WAKXkxjOf681TF6QZf" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-limit-order-faqs-318919712778827776">MEXC Futures Limit Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNBzCrR9iTnx87EgoRX6O6e" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-market-order-faqs-318921954751756288">MEXC Futures Market Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPgNf3KGlJCoYjjOto5qUrM" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-trigger-order-faqs-318924677761021952">MEXC Futures Trigger Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusYRSWoJVCWFET8qaXZQKtJe" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-trailing-stop-order-faqs-318927297691072512">MEXC Futures Trailing Stop Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZaTX9tCq9Uubfz1Ct99nvc" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-post-only-faqs-318928276943616000">MEXC Futures Post-Only FAQs</a></span></div></li></ul><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7ZJrVEJ7PUKOIRFGqmmDjd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusS1FAl3xLX1p4dOYYmg4mTc"><br></div></div>

What Are Futures Risk Limits?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVJEnh96EUS3J6NilF1QpFc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-YJxNdZFHtomGf9xCV4vuSxmSs5g"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Futures risk limits refer to a set of measures established to reduce potential trading risks and losses. In a trading environment with high price volatility, traders who use high leverage to hold large positions may face significant risks of liquidation losses. If the insurance fund is depleted, an automatic deleveraging system may be triggered, posing additional risks to other traders.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNJIzBYpPrtHzkV6uNbMrZf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-UWhAd6OOvowebKxoBrNu9wh9sac"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Therefore, <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/">MEXC</a> employs a risk limit mechanism for all trading accounts, using a tiered margin system for risk control, where the leverage multiplier depends on the size of the position; the larger the position, the lower the available leverage. Users can adjust the leverage multiplier themselves, and the initial margin rate is calculated based on the leverage multiplier adjusted by the user.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAMIH9gBAzBAE5dsFJGRzNd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus4Vu5McHmZwo2kHdp4dbXGc"><strong>2.

When the leverage is adjusted to 30x, the position limit changes to 91,310 USDT.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFXg6bJDjVj4mTjTRqrL1v7"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusiqpvOmqzslBhVh7MwpeRPh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.2 Position Size Corresponds to Different Tiers of Maintenance Margin Rates</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslDZzQyzg2iBOdeu6jW1DPe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-GHhJdiKsto3Ge9xtcpiuydcWsqd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The maintenance margin rate is calculated based on the size of the user's position, not the leverage multiplier adjusted by the user.

It is calculated by adding an asset's closing prices over a specified period and dividing the total by the number of periods. As new price data becomes available, the calculation updates, forming a smooth line on the chart.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusx0FTqPRzrjdaO1JLrEqyNy"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbCb4vUEY2mR4tQLTRbAxvc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Prices often fluctuate rapidly during normal market activity, which can make trends difficult to identify. The SMA filters out some of this short-term noise and helps traders see the market's overall direction more clearly.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvxMeY8kmIvzmmYVSd20ght"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusyXwmn7Pfqa5nzHjC9lEp9b"><strong>2.

The following are three of the most commonly used settings:</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusi1IZJKIoYI34slEh2tEAhc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxNk6ARVMAjM7updQqFkpRd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong>20-day SMA (short term):</strong> This reflects roughly one month of price action and responds relatively quickly to price changes. It is commonly used by short-term and swing traders to identify near-term momentum.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKkYlRof8G4W6tXF3AyRCCa"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustOzXV17juUPfS5CurgWmMd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong>50-day SMA (medium term):</strong> This balances responsiveness and stability. It is often used as dynamic support or resistance within a trend and is well suited to medium-term traders.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyg0ETLTGalnAPmj4sMf6Qg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXqhaX8K62k5Z6thSxWnDG6"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong>200-day SMA (long term, or 200 DMA):</strong> This is one of the most closely watched long-term trend indicators among institutional traders. When the price is above the 200-day SMA, the broader market bias is generally bullish. A move below the 200-day SMA is generally considered bearish. The indicator is often viewed as a dividing line between bull and bear markets.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPNwNawnfDrkbnNWNyeO7Jb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9y6cWPW1j7GVqoe9EcBtAc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">As a general rule, shorter holding periods call for shorter SMA periods, while longer holding periods call for longer SMA periods. Beginners may want to start with longer-period moving averages because they smooth short-term price fluctuations but respond more slowly to changes in trend.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXMmS1xJcTYCwItEcxnLM3e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus48hYzrgV1smuWcF7N5UFqb"><strong>3.

When the price remains below the SMA and the line slopes downward, the market is in a downtrend, suggesting that traders remain cautious or consider exiting their positions.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBa7ZO6klUVv3m01NgEAoNg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 style="text-align:left" class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxuseZThJhIMlOhhaWMKRdphGh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.2 Use dynamic support and resistance</span></h3><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusEIcdt9CsEAsSSL6ikHQ5fb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9xXYxx4oWta37YNAayiWWe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In addition to indicating trend direction, an SMA can serve as a reference for potential dynamic support or resistance. During an uptrend, a pullback toward the SMA may find support and rebound, indicating a potential entry opportunity. During a downtrend, a rally toward the SMA may encounter resistance and reverse, providing a possible signal to reduce a position or exit. Longer-period moving averages generally provide stronger support and resistance than shorter-period averages.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusGaOTVn8bft4qik3CUCIcuc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 style="text-align:left" class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxus0ukAywqdlAR1gUHn1lSY3b"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.3 Use golden cross and death cross singals</span></h3><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvDooxGMo8PS2Bu3rIN3l2f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusjDtGAG1VZ4WsfWvdkm8RDh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Moving average crossovers are among the most widely recognized trading signals. A golden cross occurs when a short-term moving average, such as the 50-day SMA, crosses above a long-term moving average, such as the 200-day SMA. It is generally viewed as a bullish signal that may indicate the strengthening of an uptrend. Conversely, a death cross occurs when the short-term moving average crosses below the long-term moving average and is viewed as a bearish signal. Rising trading volume around a crossover may provide additional confirmation.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustc3O2h8MHj2fSHdr7PruPf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusmLVFhw7292nOXS0HFevoeb"><strong>4.

It generally moves more smoothly and responds more slowly to recent price changes than the EMA, and is often better suited to identifying medium- and long-term trends. The <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/how-to-use-the-exponential-moving-average-indicator-in-trading-416907527621799936">Exponential Moving Average (EMA)</a> gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive and better suited to short-term trading, although it is also more likely to produce false signals.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusCaCJtQWCPENP5Ei5FczFMf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyvvP1LpPIVbXU0W9eeEuvc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In general, intraday and short-term traders tend to prefer the EMA, while medium- and long-term traders and beginners may find the SMA more suitable. Neither indicator is inherently better. The right choice depends on your trading timeframe and strategy.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus6Y3kIHn8haxWb4kCDKUiae"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus545DxkA2QiC79h7J79OEWf"><strong>5.

A price above the SMA suggests a bullish bias, while a price below it suggests a bearish bias. You can also use the SMA as dynamic support or resistance and combine it with golden cross and death cross signals to help time entries and exits.</span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusP1CSPYJVuBXqJi7mjvEarf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 style="text-align:left" class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusoARCwwgjVCXXenNRGJkG9n"><span style="font-size: 16px;">6.2 Which moving average settings should I use?</span></h3><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrHDDcTGEAWD3HFYPktb6wb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:left" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustGRSRtpc2nOrms6xjfrPnb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Short-term traders often use a 10-day or 20-day SMA, medium-term traders commonly use a 50-day SMA, and long-term trend analysis often relies on a 200-day SMA.

Unlike a simple average price, VWAP assigns greater weight to price levels with higher trading volume. It therefore provides a more accurate representation of the market's average trading cost and perceived fair value.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AAMCdoFzfo2QHZxG6raufEcRsrf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-GazadZeTboceUAxO6bGu4ISRsTf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Institutional investors commonly use VWAP as a benchmark for evaluating the execution quality of large orders. Individual traders can use it to assess whether the current market price is relatively high or low. A price below VWAP suggests that sellers are in control and that the asset is trading below its average price. A price above VWAP indicates that buyers have the advantage and that market sentiment is relatively bullish.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Gxbndc1IaogcBixTqfDuS4Bps5g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-H052dyLgnoKWFFxc7NauJ14RsFc"><strong>2.

As it is calculated using cumulative historical data, it is a lagging indicator, and the lag may become more noticeable as the trading session progresses. In a strong one-directional trend, pullback opportunities may also be limited, reducing the applicability of VWAP strategies.

If no matching orders exist, the limit order will remain in the order book waiting to be executed until it is either fully filled or manually canceled by you.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBdAFj7yig89ZQX6chjzKDc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZZAh5cvxCEGrSQCFvMCEug"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Key concepts of a Futures limit order include the entry price (the specific price set to open a position), position size (the number of contracts or amount planned for trading), leverage (the multiplier amplifying both profits and risks), and take-profit/stop-loss (TP/SL) functions (where the system automatically places closing orders at preset prices once the initial trigger condition is met).</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusUqlYO2gpE9OWElyuKtdDqe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusSbGsKezxlQJzroHmjB6Bwd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Your Futures Trading Journey</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/Futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAYoZVCDXlfs4Lakk1QU1fg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus6wNcYACNNtXQtWOIj8Iqcb"><strong>2. What is the difference between limit orders and market orders in Futures trading?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus2JRfOe2isx2zqrUZDZUoTd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusOk8TcegBKXCNXnCNH2BtCc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders come with a price restriction. Limit orders prioritize price over speed and may not fill due to market volatility, making them suitable for traders who wish to control entry costs or wait for an ideal price level. In contrast, market orders have no price restrictions, offer fast, and almost guaranteed execution, making them ideal for traders who prioritize speed and need to open or close positions quickly.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7TjZOzhuvINt3rDdq8er0e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushCuYGlWqApAoxGDfvidvne"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Simply put, Futures limit orders are better suited for users who want precise control over their entry price, helping them avoid chasing highs when going long or blindly opening short positions at lows, though they carry the risk of non-execution. Market orders guarantee immediate execution, making them suitable for traders needing to enter or exit positions rapidly during periods of intense market volatility.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuscZwMAamw6jBnd6UiUtmiLb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusoQHlNEdwaPRED54DrX6IEh"><strong>3. Why has my Futures limit order not been filled after placement?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrybukEhMYeLQzrpQ8oMfZe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusIsBqslH4ijOKfxQftdCfdf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Unfilled limit orders are typically caused by the following reasons:</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuskSpsVJWx95OJgWWhIh0hFh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1) Price has not been reached: If your limit buy price is set below the current market price, or your limit sell price is set above the current market price, the order must wait for the market price to reach your specified level before it can be executed.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusMaXf52rW8Pto5UvxajuUld"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Insufficient market liquidity: Even if the price reaches your specified level, insufficient buying or selling pressure may prevent the order from being fully filled, causing it to remain pending in the order book.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusR8ruBIzwHfvihwvRYlGM4c"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Post-Only order mode: If you used the "Post-Only" order type, the system will automatically cancel the order if it would immediately match with an existing order in the book. This ensures your order remains a maker order (adding liquidity) so you can benefit from lower maker fees.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusC3pVYK8pPAq5sMR2QbvXfb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxuslnyqCrRGCeNY2xg0k6YEkb"><strong>4. Why is my limit order only partially filled?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusnFWWjYLC9krakfmHbhZLkc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxust8nn6oQvk69890wiBSLtUb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Due to the high volatility and uncertainty of the crypto Futures market, your limit orders may experience partial fills.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusiMkAvYVFZWgn1480IEDUKe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPWMETh3IpVkxBWpnovfRle"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Insufficient market liquidity is the most common cause. When the price reaches your specified limit, if the volume of opposing orders at that price level is insufficient to fully absorb your order, only a portion will be executed, while the remainder stays in the order book waiting for further matches.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszc9cLnigCODHS0Tx2cHhgg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrpXwPqGFgbMEi0jnSgxVGh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Price wicks (or "shadows") during highly volatile periods can also lead to partial fills. Since crypto Futures markets have no daily price limits, prices can fluctuate drastically in an instant, forming sharp wicks that briefly touch extreme levels before quickly rebounding. If your limit order is placed near such a wick, only a tiny fraction may execute at the exact moment the price touches that level; as the price rapidly retraces, the remaining portion of your order will fail to fill.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusJ3vK7KeJFYEzhpMGmUIfXg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusNa1Xrbj2ySID5MfGFe5hnf"><strong>5. Why does the fill price of my Futures limit order differ from my expectation?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDs9wNgYV3JBoRdyqt83z8f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuscCGcwmvlKiiEgj445VgrRb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A limit order guarantees that the fill price will be no lower than your preset value, but the actual fill price may be better. For example, if you set a limit buy price of 100 USDT to go long, the actual fill price might be 99.5 USDT. This means you established your long position at a lower cost. This is the normal operating mechanism of a limit order and works to your advantage.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZ1DIY4dbLUWJmjQxG3r2Nh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus4p9LwsyF9pBxCQtkqV0u7b"><strong>6.

For instance, setting a stop-loss trigger price for a long position above the current market price could cause the order to trigger immediately or fail to execute as intended.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushqaD9DijGM6EYTbMhW72ug"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusuciOy6xmlZIrBia5N6pm6f"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is particularly important to note that for TP/SL orders preset when opening a position via a limit order: the system only submits the closing order based on the preset price and filled quantity after the initial opening order has been fully executed. If the calculated order value upon triggering is less than the minimum allowable order size, the order will become invalid, potentially preventing the position from closing automatically.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNi7zE0B3NNOMjCYCPXIehf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusrTZ5ZUdAoHpHLMGmkH4had"><strong>7.

If you set a limit buy order above the current market price or a limit sell order below the current market price in an attempt to chase the price, the system may treat your order as a taker order, subjecting it to the higher fee rate.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK5HYmFXYbxH0WwGR54cdWg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusUyrMMBCfmd72ikSGZNaRcG"><strong>8. What are the risks of using Futures limit orders during highly volatile markets?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxAAyXL13hHweQO70LNE6Hx"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLgMnRLAjdhCPZYaRZuBRvg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">During extreme market conditions, Futures limit orders face the risk of price wicks. This occurs when the price momentarily touches a specific level to execute your order and then rapidly rebounds, causing you to open a position at an unfavorable price. Since Futures trading involves leverage, losses in such scenarios can be significantly amplified.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusgCZyOsX15tGaADJe6RQCyg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusJkqAYIrYqK65mjfilkm0db"><span style="font-size: 16px;">We recommend that in highly volatile markets, if you need to open or close a position urgently, you should prioritize using market orders. If you need precise control over your entry price, use limit orders, but ensure you set your order prices reasonably based on order book depth. Additionally, always set up TP/SL orders to effectively manage position risk.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusClh4Q8y9uAFIXjsQXAcyld"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusikBuB9EBHzgJl6NlTEFhfB"><strong>9.

MEXC Futures Market Order FAQs

In MEXC Futures trading, market orders are instantly matched with the best counterparty prices on the order book, ensuring traders can rapidly open or close positions. Market orders are particularly suitable for scenarios requiring immediate entry or urgent position closing, making them highly common in volatile futures markets.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus0H99yzwBViiMassCC0mJed"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslztpOFQlcZbwCn9sRZtBbb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Your Futures Journey</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszUDEAmHoVbvuNH8L4kCblf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxuswxqS0aoaoEYfPxhwVuMNwf"><strong>2.

The system executes the order immediately at the current market price. While traders cannot specify the exact fill price, they are guaranteed rapid order execution. This method is ideal for trend following, emergency stop-losses, or situations requiring immediate market entry.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAcXji0B7B2WELeNUiHmrPg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusof0BUZEQafBdcLMkM5w23d"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders prioritize price control. Traders can pre-set their ideal execution price, and the order will only be executed when the market price reaches that level. This method is suitable for counter-trend trading, placing orders at support/resistance levels, or for traders who wish to precisely control their entry costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusdiBRKVJFN0uVmnw3zUU23b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVddZlDbTut86srlCIrqJOc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In short: Market orders guarantee execution but not price. Limit orders guarantee price but not execution. Traders should flexibly choose based on their specific strategic needs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus4NzaG6DtK3NbYEhVFPh0hu"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus14k37HtsmQIwbftMwANEid"><strong>3.

However, if they use a limit order and wait for it to be filled (acting as a maker), they may pay zero fees (depending on current maker fee promotions). For frequent traders, strategically combining market orders and limit orders can effectively reduce overall trading costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusQRC8OCepBgh9Fxj5fhKFWe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusgJQKSvgCm9iO1N8eCkRPbh"><strong>4. What is slippage? Why does it occur with market orders?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusSOqQtuYe7MtmZkuZ1GJVqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusopb0W6oV3GUgeTklazPHwh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Slippage refers to the difference between the expected price at the time of order placement and the actual fill price. When a trader submits a market order, the system immediately seeks the best counterparty price on the order book for matching. However, since market prices can fluctuate within milliseconds, the final fill price may differ slightly from the expected price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus4rNfbJHOuD61OBA18SJtug"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWuixirEWdqAh2kGJa06Y7g"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The primary causes of slippage are twofold. During major news releases or rapid market movements, prices can swing significantly in a short period, causing the execution price to deviate from the expectation. Likewise, when the order size is large relative to the available market depth, a market order will consume multiple price levels on the order book sequentially. This results in an average fill price that differs from the initial best bid/ask price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLLq8dHwOTsDW5voPpll0vg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusl1t8DZ7X3z5SQNqALan46b"><span style="font-size: 16px;">To mitigate slippage risk, it is advisable to avoid using large market orders during periods of low liquidity or high volatility. Instead, consider using limit orders to lock in your price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusd0oORkljpFtLK7cT2NPSDb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus3kaZg8T8iGzXf5rGBkzp5b"><strong>5. Can market orders be partially filled or fail to fill completely?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK7K0STSWTKk1AO3EunyPqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuskU6vIsIiY9cd6z1Dg41hsb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes, under certain circumstances, market orders may only be partially filled. When market depth is insufficient, the market order cannot instantly consume all the required liquidity. Consequently, only a portion of the order is executed, while the remaining part may be canceled by the system if the price moves beyond acceptable limits.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusOnakdRz7aXGP0VwqLHBCFd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushWMtNdo9XxoQtvTTiyejYe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is important to note that if the total value of a single market order is too large, the unfilled portion may be canceled. Therefore, when trading Futures pairs with lower liquidity, it is recommended to split large orders into several smaller ones or use limit orders to ensure complete execution.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusjF70C49vZk1LZXXlcvTuPg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusGYFciO0QDhw0ZUTg1kaHce"><strong>6. In what scenarios are market orders most suitable?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusYXF7OyfyoJP4U02CnF7Q8b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfSFZsWJXE2cRjwgZtQ6Mw4"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Market orders are particularly effective in the following scenarios:</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVTJFSpNVTy6s9HiAIfYDSe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1) Trend Following: When technical analysis indicates a price breakout at a key level, market orders allow for rapid position entry to seize the opportunity.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxG8vE1xw0jOcA0c7jbUhKh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Emergency Stop-Loss: When the market moves rapidly against your position, using a market order ensures immediate liquidation to control losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus8fhQzyYxSNJXTRJitWGJVh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Quick Profit-Taking: When a position reaches its target profit, a market order guarantees an immediate exit to lock in gains.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTTEQEG7vZjkJtr98sYnR4f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusp59PHqRdvREnWrmlOqOpjf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For scalping, day trading, or any strategy requiring instant reaction, market orders are an indispensable tool. However, it is crucial to note that market orders sacrifice price certainty in exchange for execution speed. Traders must fully understand this trade-off.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK9WvUDAsvSlsbxfGITvPPf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfvv7XrXr9dUuVLg7L82Wgh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Note: Scalping trading is a strategy aimed at profiting from a series of small price changes over very short timeframes. Unlike day trading or swing trading, where positions may be held for hours or days, scalpers often hold positions for only seconds. This requires scalpers to monitor price movements closely to maximize decision-making accuracy.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbcJrMaMCdzLNu6WGhza2zf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusXCK41MtcuehxzCkCZsDw3L"><strong>7. What should be noted when using market orders during extreme market conditions?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslRwY10wYkelj7Wwdb6cu0b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusdGGgrQDWDDhuIv79TbJcpg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">During periods of sharp cryptocurrency price volatility or insufficient market liquidity, trading with market orders can carry significant risks. In extreme conditions, slippage can expand dramatically, causing the execution price to deviate significantly from your expectation. When using market orders to stop losses during violent fluctuations, the actual execution price may be far worse than your intended stop-loss level, leading to larger-than-expected losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-FUwhduVIUo4ozlxN5H0uhkS0sMf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-RfnjdnQJyodL0lx2taxuaqJ4scb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In high-leverage trading, extreme volatility combined with market orders can lead to unexpected forced liquidations. If your position's margin is insufficient to cover losses, the platform will trigger a liquidation mechanism. Executing a market order to close a position during such turbulence may result in fills at highly unfavorable prices, exacerbating losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusa8JeUqYlj5NcZETwwmSIpb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusMsHPr8k4cIj33bvBKwEayc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In high-volatility environments, it is advisable to prioritize using limit orders to control costs and to set leverage ratios reasonably to minimize the risk of liquidation.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszXT80vv8Xoda4oINAB8Swf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusARE4mhqV3hFOhG2F2OYAtt"><strong>8.

This figure does not include costs such as trading fees, slippage, or funding fees. The realized PNL is determined by the actual fill price when closing the position. All related fees must be deducted to determine the final profit or loss.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusu8Pf9EQSNzJ7fP8L5iH17b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKENmXkYSPMxuCKUGi4aZDd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For example, if a user holds a long position with a displayed unrealized PNL of 120 USDT, but only receives 108 USDT after closing the position (resulting in the realized PNL), the difference is likely due to trading fees and funding fee payments. Therefore, when evaluating trading performance, the actual amount received should be considered the final result.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusG6BdcgHUagmcY6EQ6TizFg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus7wZfWvwAyiT9JqHYyly4Se"><strong>10.

However, since the execution price cannot be controlled, there is a risk of slippage. It is recommended that beginners start with small trade sizes when using market orders to gradually familiarize themselves with market volatility characteristics.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuseDsOQ2WTIOYWH8WjYdFKjg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusH1E48fQE76TrGUN1NvnOce"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders, meanwhile, require setting a specific price, making the operation slightly more complex, but they allow for precise cost control. For trades where immediate execution is not critical, limit orders are a more prudent choice.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVZp5F9emC38gNW0bFLAYsc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbmFL0YKVOXYOnAS0ZGoeNg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In actual trading, both order types have their advantages. It is advisable to flexibly combine them based on the specific situation. Use market orders for emergency position closing or chasing fast-moving trends, and use limit orders for planning entries or aiming to reduce costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDLEViEnwMkc2XmRSYMY8uc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusjncTC9JNmuWqEQUUcclLic"><strong>11.

What is a trigger order on MEXC Futures?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusU5xs1hRvEG42bMacVNRTUg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9kPM8xUCSyaFCNhcpgtjdc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">A trigger order is a strategic order type provided by MEXC. Users can pre-set a trigger price, order price, and quantity. When the market price reaches the trigger price, the system automatically places an order at the pre-set order price. This order type helps traders achieve goals such as taking profit, stopping loss, closing positions, or opening positions based on trends.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusuGtQFW9c0Q6VM7yZCQqrvh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDgBckM144VrM5tS0iEZbXb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Compared to other order types, a key feature of trigger orders is that no positions or margin are frozen before the order is successfully triggered. This means your funds remain available for other trading operations until the trigger occurs, improving capital efficiency.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusp3j45rs2JCdebjty7EFTve"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus8gGXpbvRQgrWSZT9VRguAc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Futures Trading</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7X7rljvYHxB07qN8bNQ29g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusx02KHxYqQayDwerR35BCah"><strong>2. What types of trigger prices are available for trigger orders?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFwcyTSexqD9Tb9TzMryyjc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-NSLCdxbiYoSS6Px1HZFuVeAysIe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">In MEXC Futures trading, trigger orders support three types of trigger prices: last price, fair price, and index price. </span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-TRBQdAATBoRLF3xpaInuiFI7sUh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-RoDtdzuLVoHIYtxdXilu4P4Asxh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Last price refers to the immediate transaction price in the MEXC Futures order book, reflecting real-time market trading conditions. The fair price is calculated using weighted price data from major exchanges. It reflects the true market price more fairly and effectively prevents user losses caused by abnormal fluctuations on a single platform. Index price is derived by selecting spot prices from multiple major exchanges and calculated based on different weights.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-PVIbd5KcqoMh7LxZUE5uL4ETs8c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-N8a3dwF75oIrS3xIMbpudMSLsEg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Choosing different trigger price types can meet various trading strategy needs. For example, using the fair price as a trigger condition can avoid abnormal triggers caused by short-term price manipulation.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusA7uO7aOpir5cPHn4tlVBVf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusYgct1ilqIJHHb8Ua7de5ce"><strong>3. The market has reached the trigger price, so why hasn't my trigger order been executed?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLQMrEMCMbudgTSV2nKHnTf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWLXggQ7ah9Se3hJAIzubqf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is important to note that reaching the trigger price does not guarantee the order will be executed. The execution process of a trigger order occurs in two stages. First is the trigger stage, where the market price meets the trigger condition, the system activates the order. Second, the order placement stage, where the system sends the order to the market at the pre-set order price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxustU7r9jvu7Ug89F8dA83HVb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus5S5dNm0D8lo3zwWlt8heGf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Common reasons why a trigger order may fail to trigger or execute include the following. The market price reached the trigger price but has not yet reached the order price. Likewise, there may be insufficient margin causing order placement failure. The position quantity may exceed limits. The trading pair could be in a non-trading state, or there might be network anomalies or system maintenance. Additionally, during extreme market conditions, violent price fluctuations may prevent the order from being triggered or executed immediately.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvM9R7kb1vExHPlkg8vEG3b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVEKxxWB9ryG7YgksypFqSb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Once triggered, the resulting limit order behaves like a standard limit order and does not guarantee execution. If the market price moves rapidly, the limit order may not be filled at the pre-set price. Any unfilled limit orders will appear in the current orders list, where you can view and manage them at any time.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusq06VIqp8owC6xESwie7ozb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusCM9iuycWDAwP76RpehGCVP"><strong>4.

It is recommended to set the order price slightly below the trigger price, or simply select a market order. This ensures rapid execution once triggered. For example, if you hold a BTC long position and want to stop loss if the price drops to 39,000 USDT, set the trigger price to 39,000 USDT and the order price to 38,950 USDT, or choose market order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus91Qu5T0tCr0qQ5stD1hLLe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusC2DZj3LWrFPCEQUPO81Sog"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For stop-loss buy scenarios, set the trigger price at your stop-loss level. The order price should be set slightly above the trigger price. For example, if you hold a BTC short position and want to stop loss if the price rises to 41,000 USDT, set the trigger price to 41,000 USDT and the order price to 41,050 USDT.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxushixiisH9YgcoObKOCNszzb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZkkIfwZocH8GuEifBLYrEh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For breakout long, also known as "buying the dip" scenarios, when you anticipate a significant upward trend after the price breaks through a key level, set the trigger price at that breakout level. For the order price, choose a market order or a limit price slightly higher than the trigger price to ensure entry.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBcIejRBg3dl9sccZr7D8Eh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxussLLdHbk3XlPTxPI4ZAILHf"><strong>5.

However, the downside is that limit orders may fail to execute during market volatility. This option is suitable for situations where strict requirements exist for the execution price and market volatility is relatively stable.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVKsWCdmojkCKXqEXoIsBsc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusq1mK3B07PhU5sOea1tZUkg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">When selecting a market order, the system will execute the order quickly at the current best market price once triggered, offering fast execution speed and high certainty. However, in highly volatile markets, significant slippage may occur, resulting in a deviation between the actual fill price and the expected price. This is suitable for situations requiring rapid position liquidation or stop-loss execution where speed takes precedence over price precision.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus4yKCJwbVdsWlAORqc8U3sc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusAVlXsFRt2bhUEjN4Eo1Eae"><span style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC offers a price protection feature that effectively prevents losses caused by abnormal triggering of TP/SL orders during periods of extreme market volatility.

In such cases, if the gap between the trigger price and the actual market price is too large, the order may fail to execute normally.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus1gCr1ebwxhSZyXQLpv0dSc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusA5H1bjLmcG9eAtrjwlHoQc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Here are a few suggestions to mitigate the risks associated with price gaps. Appropriately increase the distance between the trigger price and the current market price to allow room for volatility. For TP/SL orders, prioritize using market orders to ensure rapid execution once triggered. Also, periodically check and adjust untriggered orders to ensure the trigger conditions still align with current market conditions.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusFYDaBCyWx851UQxhFUb6Jd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus4ET4SFU3GCbWujNkxqGYnc"><strong>7.

Therefore, it is recommended to ensure that sufficient margin is reserved in your account when setting up a trigger order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusmRMrO3FiOE8xwWIsylrnsb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusE1vWyurYgjXFohJoBmouWh"><strong>8.

Traders are advised to thoroughly understand the operational mechanisms of trigger orders and use them judiciously in alignment with their trading strategies to achieve a more efficient Futures trading experience.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLB1FRnUirENDSeBfbUxMTh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusBaFrESqaAbPbekhQ8Bfqqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Recommended Reading</span></h3><ul start="1" class="list-bullet1"><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-JoCydpdcroFUwTx7mj5uZrxusXd" data-list="bullet"><div><a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-limit-order-faqs-318919712778827776" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Limit Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-DMBIdeGrVoQUI5x3kQKuKQZlsVh" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-market-order-faqs-318921954751756288" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Market Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-IoNgd3uFlowhDcxrI3Duckr1sxh" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-chase-limit-order-faqs-318923114392927232" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Chase Limit Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusMyO6knnafTXsJUHGOEdp8d" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-trailing-stop-order-faqs-318927297691072512" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Trailing Stop Order FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusYJuhx6Q5eZOcvzsfXJS2Vd" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-post-only-faqs-318928276943616000" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">MEXC Futures Post-Only FAQs</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuscq3n3fRSF13KBy3TBbrxYe" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/faq-on-index-price-fair-price-and-last-price-7950960183961" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">FAQ on Index Price, Fair Price, and Last Price</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusqWmMWIlFC93IoKuhLfPnKo" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/time-in-force-tif-for-futures-trading-305427906242034688" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">Time in Force (TIF) for Futures Trading: A Complete Guide</a></div></li></ul><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusUlB4yRxm716UvXO1LZ9gab"><br></div></div>

On the MEXC platform, this order mode is exclusively available under hedge mode, offering traders a method that balances execution speed with price control.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ZCl1d19F9oBJsKxk16WunBgBscd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-SSkxdvsJuoouQWxfWPsuY5Iis7h"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Simply put, when you place a chase limit order, the system automatically tracks the top of the order book and continuously updates your order price. Unlike traditional limit orders that wait for the market price to reach your set level, a chase limit order actively "chases" the market price, significantly improving execution efficiency.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusO5GDXeIeGS8tdjcCO4rgdb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusz7E64kUHtXG3mSPIqXx17f"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Your Futures Journey</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/futures/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus2x9eOG3E4D4dyMfniodf5e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusVTiwuxDDVLjDXvY42PkPWg"><strong>2.

This maximizes transaction speed, eliminating the need for traders to wait long periods for price pullbacks.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9Z3EKlNrUSBf5BTowj5XLg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusDHKkJcq3br0P3w25s0e0Qb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Seizing Opportunities: During periods of rapid market volatility, traders can buy or sell instantly to capture trading opportunities driven by price movements. This prevents missing out on trends due to a significant gap between a static limit price and the current market price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuslmN9jXhibBOz0hGEHKrf7e"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyZkswl09w0d4gUs4gr6J2f"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Fee Savings: Since chase limit orders are typically executed as Maker orders rather than Taker orders, traders can often enjoy lower fee rates.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTpHtx2B88H80DMvq1KfoIR"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusxNosJqvyVCKDgCqgk5W5Uh"><strong>3. How is the execution price of a chase limit order determined?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusebhHQpOSowyxj7UnhRfKS4"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusr4QTAQsc0leghc0t8LCuog"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The execution price of a chase limit order depends on the chase price setting method you select. On the MEXC platform, the chase price defaults to the Level 1 order book price. This means that when placing a buy order, the order price tracks the best bid price. When placing a sell order, the order price tracks the best ask price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKUqN6PZn7GOLMMQIxsjKNb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuszl4Q6f9TBkLJoh2Kc2PfLf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Once the order is submitted, the system places a limit order based on the current order book price. As the order book price changes. Any portion of the order that can be executed at the new price will be filled immediately. The remaining unfilled quantity will be re-quoted at the last price. This cycle continues until the entire order is filled or manually canceled.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKYNneQTMtJCn39qFWLLste"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus0LqF6fPfd8URCljavn66Ig"><strong>4.

For buys, the execution price could be higher than the initial order book price. For sells, the execution price could be lower than expected.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuso9Q7dVUHYEDIfZj6xPkLHb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus6wD71cblxEIBowcrxMZSAd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) Slippage Risk: In extreme market conditions with violent price fluctuations, even with a maximum chase distance set, there is a risk of partial fills or no fills at all. Furthermore, significant slippage, where the actual execution price deviates substantially from the expected price at the moment of ordering, can still occur.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusOW08QNHfiD5JIC0unF0fyc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbVt3ysSAL0p7AbiBVjnend"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) Order Modification Restrictions: Chase limit orders generally do not support parameter modification after placement. If you need to adjust the price settings, order quantity, or maximum chase distance, you must first cancel the existing order and place a new one.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusIwulV7fiOjfHQ3pUA00RZg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxush258Jd457MLW5ZdvhmSKDd"><strong>5. What is the maximum chase distance and how is it set?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNOfgUwGvAnoukTc3Lcf4wh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusVwhZvOWiC9yRcybgI1fJQf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The maximum chase distance is a crucial protection mechanism in chase limit orders, designed to limit the range within which the system tracks the price. When the gap between the current market price and your initial order price reaches the set maximum chase distance, the system will automatically cancel your order. This prevents unfavorable executions caused by prices deviating significantly from your entry point.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXxcsPu2j8aMJtBjtFMySYc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZuDVDGQEPZRuWmC0oZtYSh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The maximum chase distance can be set as a specific numerical value or a percentage. For example, if you set the maximum chase distance for a buy order to 100 USDT, and the best bid price rises from an initial 40,000 USDT to exceed 40,100 USDT, chasing will automatically stop. Any unfilled portion will be canceled and will no longer chase the price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusW3TnLNBi3TZebMjtu3g3Kb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusm2PFfZcM55eW5EJ218XuDb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Based on the maximum chase distance and the current order book price, the system calculates the highest chase price. For buy orders, the chase limit order is canceled when the last price is greater than or equal to the highest chase buy price. For sell orders, the chase limit order is canceled when the last price is less than or equal to the highest chase sell price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusn7th11zeu2yi4n3OdOcQed"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" data-type="image" data-ace-gallery-json="{&quot;items&quot;:[{&quot;uuid&quot;:&quot;2ff15948-7709-461b-93e9-d4752a8065c0&quot;,&quot;height&quot;:1468,&quot;width&quot;:2938,&quot;currHeight&quot;:1468,&quot;currWidth&quot;:2938,&quot;natrualHeight&quot;:1468,&quot;natrualWidth&quot;:2938,&quot;pluginName&quot;:&quot;imageUpload&quot;,&quot;scale&quot;:1,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https%3A%2F%2Finternal-api-drive-stream.larksuite.com%2Fspace%2Fapi%2Fbox%2Fstream%2Fdownload%2Fpreview%2FR3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue%2F%3Fpreview_type%3D16&quot;,&quot;file_token&quot;:&quot;R3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue&quot;,&quot;image_type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:966358,&quot;comments&quot;:[]}]}" class="image-uploaded gallery old-record-id-doxusByHX5VFDcNtxWPkm4lqFlS"><img src="https://mexc-rainbown-activityimages.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com/banner/F20260306171059654ZByZRiZhmwnvbS.png" data-single-block="true" data-snapshot="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" data-suite="eyJmaWxlVG9rZW4iOiJSM1RwYkVSTEVvcWhwNnhaSVdEdUF4eDFzdWUiLCJvYmpUeXBlIjoiZG9jeCIsIm9ialRva2VuIjoiZG94dXNCeUhYNVZGRGNOdHhXUGttNGxxRmxTIiwib3JpZ2luU3JjIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9pbnRlcm5hbC1hcGktZHJpdmUtc3RyZWFtLmxhcmtzdWl0ZS5jb20vc3BhY2UvYXBpL2JveC9zdHJlYW0vZG93bmxvYWQvcHJldmlldy9SM1RwYkVSTEVvcWhwNnhaSVdEdUF4eDFzdWUvP3ByZXZpZXdfdHlwZT0xNiJ9" data-src="https://internal-api-drive-stream.larksuite.com/space/api/box/stream/download/all/R3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue/?mount_node_token=doxusByHX5VFDcNtxWPkm4lqFlS&amp;mount_point=docx_image" data-width="2938" data-height="1468" data-lark-image-uri="drivetoken://R3TpbERLEoqhp6xZIWDuAxx1sue" data-lark-image-width="2938" data-lark-image-height="1468" data-host-from-cloud="true" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 12px; font-size: 16px; width: 750px;"></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusgpNj4jzKAjhqiMWonph90c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusgJcg6C4bFuJmm7N0uaW0ec"><strong>6. What trading scenarios are suitable for chase limit orders?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusrjGKJMvUz9bKPSdKuOOMRb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusvTrfooRoRd0TOJz0AJ0sXc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Chase limit orders are particularly well-suited for fast-moving market conditions, allowing traders to pursue quick execution while setting price ceilings or floors to prevent excessive slippage. Here are three typical application scenarios:</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWWUqeP0ztpTQMizUorqTgd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusaoe1FSLNWHdjK0cqVX0sif"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1) When the market price breaks through key resistance or support levels, traders often want to enter quickly to capture the trend but worry about the significant slippage associated with market orders. In this case, using a chase limit order allows for rapid position opening while maintaining control over entry costs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusiFICmYSgkHdSOM6v1JXXOh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusxBwsQqj8Tptt0N5kMihI4c"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2) In short-term trading, opportunities can vanish in an instant. A chase limit order helps traders establish positions swiftly during rapid price fluctuations, avoiding the risk of missing the optimal entry point that often occurs when waiting for a traditional limit order to fill.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXiwCTom5ChC1YnGSsVtZzh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus3XGMMAuPKszoudk5kxBUFg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3) When executing large-volume orders, traders need to minimize wait times without sacrificing price quality.

If you need to adjust any order parameters, you must first cancel the current order and then place a new chase limit order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusfbmlHR8PNjYgywAUvIAmfc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusyYvhvNUU0H233s7zveMoob"><span style="font-size: 16px;">This design is primarily intended to ensure the system executes the tracking logic stably and efficiently. Since the price of a chase limit order updates frequently in response to market conditions, allowing simultaneous parameter modifications by users could lead to system conflicts or delays. Therefore, it is recommended that traders carefully confirm all parameters before placing an order to ensure they align with their trading strategy.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxuskV2zPags9Fg5NSPOn26XQF"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxuseZRDi2wwK0HmRueeZ2Pfnf"><strong>9. What are the differences between chase limit orders and other order types?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusuxINupH0ZsShzdwPojxY4T"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxussByhtOZjuFNn5TmfRy5ZEe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Limit orders require the user to set a fixed price. The order only executes when the market price reaches this specific level. Pros include precise cost control and zero slippage, while cons include the fact that they may require a long waiting time, and execution is not guaranteed. Chase limit orders automatically track the market price (order book), resulting in faster execution. However, the final execution price carries a degree of uncertainty compared to a fixed limit order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusK7cd2GCoxQj2jiHtslV1af"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusBunjizVc94re0735CFFuye"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Market orders execute immediately at the current best available market price. They enjoy the fastest execution speed, but can result in significant slippage during periods of high volatility. Chase limit orders also aim for quick execution but do so via a limit order mechanism. They allow users to set a maximum chase distance as a protective measure, thereby offering lower slippage risk compared to pure market orders.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus6oKoLYLo12CN9TpcgnNdJf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7qwAoJL6xJqpEe1bQiTMzb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Trigger orders involve pre-setting a trigger price. The order is only submitted to the market once the market price reaches this trigger condition. They are suitable for planning entry or exit points in advance and do not occupy margin before being triggered. Chase limit orders begin execution immediately after placement, making them more suitable for scenarios requiring instant market entry.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus9FC95UMkyfdl9L20nvH4pe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxustIme3kZIzn18Wh1kLxhjLf"><strong>10.

This approach enables lower-cost, higher-efficiency trading experiences during position building. Beginner traders are advised to thoroughly understand the chase limit order mechanism before practicing with small capital amounts. Gradually familiarize yourself with its characteristics before integrating it into actual trading strategies.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusLBqYUx3C4hvDJ1Xsbmbnzb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusvM6vGbIr1Qw3wCpVSLCKsg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Recommended Reading:</span></h3><ul start="1" class="list-bullet1"><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusWGT0WAKXkxjOf681TF6QZf" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-limit-order-faqs-318919712778827776">MEXC Futures Limit Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusNBzCrR9iTnx87EgoRX6O6e" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-market-order-faqs-318921954751756288">MEXC Futures Market Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPgNf3KGlJCoYjjOto5qUrM" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-trigger-order-faqs-318924677761021952">MEXC Futures Trigger Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusYRSWoJVCWFET8qaXZQKtJe" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-trailing-stop-order-faqs-318927297691072512">MEXC Futures Trailing Stop Order FAQs</a></span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZaTX9tCq9Uubfz1Ct99nvc" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;"><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/mexc-futures-post-only-faqs-318928276943616000">MEXC Futures Post-Only FAQs</a></span></div></li></ul><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus7ZJrVEJ7PUKOIRFGqmmDjd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusS1FAl3xLX1p4dOYYmg4mTc"><br></div></div>
