A type of buy or sell order that relies on what is available in the market.

A market order is the instruction from traders to brokers in which what is to be bought or sold depends on what is available in the market or the order book. This way, the trader is not offering to buy or sell something at a preferred price, but at the market price. In the same way, the quantity of assets to be traded have also been determined by the order book instead of the trader.

Market orders are useful in that they save time and any complicated decision-making. Even so, expert traders only use them rarely or when they think that the market is particularly favorable.

Nodes on a blockchain network that serve as the control center for the others.

A masternode is a governing type of node that verifies block transactions rather than record them. Compared to full nodes which function as the bridge between crypto traders and the exchange platform, masternodes function as bridges between nodes, thereby having a kind of supervisory advantage over the others. As a result, operating a masternode means that a crypto miner does not require as much computing experience.

Even though operating masternodes offers better returns than operating full nodes, the initial investment is higher.

The underlying determinant of a market trend which is known by a constant rise or fall in asset price.

Market momentum is a term that explains a stable price movement within a particular period. This stability may be caused by a variety of factors, but the focus is often on the continuing trend of the price. As a result, market momentums are more easily identified by market trends which directly refers to the fact that the price of a certain commodity continues to rise or fall, to the point that continued upward or downward price movement can be predicted ahead of time.

Expert traders look out for market momentums. Competently identifying these momentums allow traders to take advantage of them and make significant profits ahead of others.
