Definition
An order requesting execution at the available market price, without setting a price limit as a limit order does.
What you need to know
The last displayed price is not necessarily the execution price. For US stock orders and in the Coinbase Advanced example, price movements or limited liquidity may affect execution. Do not present a market order as a way to guarantee an exact price.
