Cevap

A buy limit order entered at $42
A buy limit order allows an investor to specify the maximum price they are willing to pay for a security. By placing a buy limit order at 42whenthemarketpriceis42 when the market price is 45, the order will only be executed at $42 or lower, matching the investor's goal.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the transaction direction and price condition.
The investor wishes to buy stock with a price constraint of paying no more than $42.
Knowing whether the order is to buy or sell narrows down the appropriate order execution category.
2
Compare the desired execution price to the current market price.
The target purchase price (42)islowerthanthecurrentmarketprice(42) is lower than the current market price ( 45).
An order to buy at a specific price below the current market requires a limit order.
3
Select the appropriate order type.
A buy limit order at 42ensuresexecutiononlyat42 ensures execution only at 42 or a lower price.
Limit orders guarantee price control (execution at limit price or better), though execution is not guaranteed if the market never reaches $42.
