A Limit Order will buy or sell a set number of shares at a specified price or better.

Limit Order is displayed as lime marker on the chart connected to the order price label on the price scale with a dotted line and as lime marker in the '''[[Depth of market (DOM)|DOM window]]'''.

For the '''[[Depth of market (DOM)|DOM window]]''', default Limit Order marker color can be modified in [[Depth of market (DOM)#How to Customize DOM Colors|Format Colors]] menu.

Create Limit Order by one of the following methods:

* Double-click the Limit Order icon http://www.multicharts.com/img/wiki/strategies/6.png in the '''[[Chart Trading#Place Order|Place Order]]''' menu ('''Buy Limit''' order at '''Bid''' price will be created).

Order Size is defined by '''Qty''' field (see [[Chart Trading##Setting Order Quantity|Setting Order Quantity]]).
