Are you asking to get screwed with a limit order above the mkt?

[bricklayercowardice]

That seems about right. Entering with that limit is okay.

 

[murray t turtle]

That is a smart move used by professional traders.

When the market is moving very rapidly, you want to make sure
you have some positions.

Let's say the market is going up.
So you simply click say BUY AT MARKET,
or BUY at HIGHER PRICE.

F..... traders would say
" let the price comes to you ".
