# Limit Orders

Limit orders are open orders which will be executed (filled/ partially filled) when the market trades at the price level specified by you. 

Say the Yes shares in a market are trading at 45c right now, but you want to buy them at 43c per share. You can open a limit order at price level 43c, specifying how many shares you want to buy. Whenever someone is willing to sell Yes shares at 43c, your limit order will be executed. 

{% hint style="info" %}
Your order might be completely filled or partially filled, depending on how many shares other people are willing to sell at your desides price level. In case of a partial fill, the remaining quantity still remains as open order which can later be filled by other traders.
{% endhint %}
