Precision execution with Solana limit orders, on OKX DEX

What's a limit order?
A limit order instructs a broker to buy or sell an asset at a specific price. When you place a limit order, you essentially set a price limit for the transaction. The order will be executed if the asset’s price reaches or surpasses your limit price. However, the order will not be carried out if the market price exceeds your limit.

What are iceberg orders?
An iceberg order is an algorithmic order allowing users to slice large orders into multiple small orders. These orders will be placed on the market according to their preferred mode (quick execution/price-speed balance/passive queuing). When one of the smaller orders has been completely filled, or the level has been changed from the initial orders, the system will check the depth and place the order accordingly.
