Any time you are dealing with assets that see as much movement as penny stocks, it is important to use all possible market order types at your disposal to minimize risk. Unless a trader plans on being in front of their computer or on the phone with their broker all day, it is almost impossible to keep track of the rapid pace of penny stock changes. Even the most experienced and knowledgeable investors cannot say for sure which direction a stock will move in, so various order types are used to take advantage of and protect against unexpected turns in the market.

 

Limit Orders

 

This type of order has the broker enter or exit a position at a price you specify. The deal will only happen if that price can be attained. Limit orders let you know in advance the exact number you will buy or sell at, but brokers often charge higher fees than a standard trade so that can affect your bottom line.

 

Market Orders

 

These are the standard order that buys or sells the stock right then and there, at whatever the current price is. It is not guaranteed that you will get the price you just saw online or on television, but typically it will be close to that. These orders also typically carry the least amount of fees and transaction costs.
