# Virtual order

When the trigger price is crossed, a real order is executed, similar to a stop order.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Advantages**:

* Does not freeze funds in the wallet
* Not visible to other market participants
* Can be used to break resistance lines
  {% endhint %}

## Order type

Upon trigger activation, the selected order type will be executed:

* **L** - Limit
* **F** - Floating
* **M** - Market

## ​Trigger

Specify the event that will trigger real order placement:

* **Last price**\
  Currency pair last price is monitored every 2 seconds for any changes.
* **Order book**\
  Detects price changes in the best <mark style="color:red;">**bid**</mark> prices for a <mark style="color:green;">**buy**</mark> and <mark style="color:green;">**ask**</mark> prices for a <mark style="color:red;">**sell**</mark> in the order book, guarding against false price breakouts.
* **By candle's close**\
  Select candlestick range to compare closing price to trigger price.

## ​Trigger price

When the trigger price is reached, a real order is created.

{% hint style="info" %}
Set price for the limit order when trigger is activated.
{% endhint %}

For example, a buy order is created:

* Trigger price = **0.4108**
* Order price = **0.41**

<figure><img src="https://t24536365.p.clickup-attachments.com/t24536365/774bce09-61ce-4b3c-aff8-8aa2f6993f2d/image.png" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

It means, a limit order is placed at **0.41** when price reaches **0.4108**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.finandy.com/trading/create-order-grid/order-types/virtual-order.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
