Market price is the going price of the moment. Limit price is what you tell it to be.. thing is that it may take time before you get the price you want. Limits usually work best if the price you set is reasonable and the volume (amount of share/activity) is decent. Realize that just because a stock hits your limit price doesn't mean that your order will be taken at that moment.

A market order instructs the broker to bid to sell your stocks until you are the low bidder. You will get your shares sold, but it will be because that at the moment of sale, you were willing to accept any price lower than anyone else. You will have no control over what that price is.

A limit order says sell this stock, but if you do not get at least $x, then do not sell it. Limit orders of the same price are filled first in time order, so if someone else placed a limit order of the same price they would fill ahead of you. If you happened to hit the enter key at the same time, the largest order fills first. If you both had the same number of shares, then the computer would randomly select which order to fill first.

If no one will pay that limit price, it will never fill.

NEVER sell at market. Slippage is bad enough. Always sell with a GTC limit for the price you are willing to accept.

the market is running up now and they say it will keep doing good till the end of the year at least till next corporate earnings are due. Put an order to sell at at10% higher than the value now . I would put in a sell order at $120

Always use a Limit Order.

Market Orders are for crashes only.
