More about Orders

There are two types of pending orders available in Palmswap Exchange:

1. Unlinked Orders - this order type is a new position awaiting execution that is not related to any existing open or pending positions

2. Linked Orders - this order is associated (linked) to an existing open or pending position (there may be more than one linked order to any single existing position)

Viewing Linked Orders

A linked order is created when a position is created with take profit and stop loss, or when take profit and stop loss are created for an open position. These can be viewed by clicking on Orders in the TP/SL column. In the dropdown linked orders are displayed and can be clicked to get a better view.

Alternatively, you can view all linked orders by clicking on the Orders table.
