Hi @Phanilbb , Thank you for your message. When placing a limit buy order, it is important to remember that the limit price should be lower than the current Last Traded Price (LTP) in order for the order to be executed at the specified limit price. If the limit price is higher than the LTP at the time the order is placed, the trade will be executed immediately at the market price (LTP).
