Thanks.

You can find the information about order types in the sections Order Types and Order State Machines.

thanks for ur reply. but from the link that did mention "True Market Open order". Ok, assume "Market Open order" = "Open Market". So what is the diffrent of "True Market Open order" and "Market Open order" ?

The "True Market Open" order is described in the Open/Close Market Order artcile. The "Market Open" order is described in the Open/Close Orders article.

The main difference is that with the Open/Close Market Order (or "True Market Open") you are guaranteed execution but have no certainty of the actual price the order will be dealt at. With Open/Close Order (or "Market Open") you are guaranteed the order price you want the order will be dealt at but have no certainty of execution.

Sorry for confusing terms. I will pass the issue to the API team.
