# Orders

> GameClub operates on a **Central Limit Order Book (CLOB)** model. All trades are matched directly between buyers and sellers at agreed prices, ensuring transparent and fair price discovery. The order book is open and visible to all participants in real time.

### Limit Orders

A limit order allows you to set a specific price at which you want to buy or sell shares in a market. Your order will only be filled when the market reaches your specified price.

* Set your desired price and quantity
* Order remains open until filled or cancelled
* Ideal for traders who want more control over their entry price
* Unfilled orders can be cancelled at any time from your order history

***

### Market Orders

A market order is executed immediately at the best available price in the order book. It is the fastest way to enter or exit a position.

* Instantly filled at the current market price
* No need to specify a price — just enter the quantity
* Best suited for when speed of execution matters more than price precision
* Available as long as there is sufficient liquidity in the market

**Warning: Be aware of the spread before placing a market order.** In markets with low liquidity, the spread between the bid and ask price can be significant.
{% endhint %}

### Order Book

The order book displays all active buy and sell orders in real time, giving you a transparent view of current market liquidity and price levels.

* **Bid side** — buy orders sorted from highest to lowest price
* **Ask side** — sell orders sorted from lowest to highest price
* The gap between the highest bid and lowest ask is the **spread**
* A deeper order book indicates higher liquidity and tighter spreads
