Practice Drills: Placing Mock Orders, Market vs Limit
A hands-on, drill-based course for anyone who has opened a demat account but never actually placed an order. Walks through the real difference between market and limit orders, how order validity types like Day, IOC, and GTT work, and a step-by-step guided walkthrough of placing both order types on Zerodha Kite. Ends with the mistakes new investors make most often and practice drills to test your judgment on which order type fits a given situation. Built for college students, first-time demat holders, salaried professionals, homemakers, and retirees who want to place their first order with confidence, not guesswork.
