An order to buy or sell a security at the best price available when the order is made. Brokers who execute these orders must make a good faith effort to find the best possible price. It is also called an at-the-market order.

market order

A customer order for immediate execution at the best price available when the order reaches the marketplace. This, the most common type of order, has the advantage of nearly always being filled because no price is specified. Compare limit order. See also elect, stop order.

Market order. When you tell your broker to buy or sell a security at the market, or current market price, you are giving a market order. The broker initiates the trade immediately.

The amount you pay or receive is determined by the number of shares and the current bid or ask price. Market orders, which account for the majority of trades, differ from limit orders to buy or sell, in which a price is specified.

What Does Market Order Mean?

An order to buy or sell a stock immediately at the best available price at the time the order is presented in the market. Sometimes referred to as an unrestricted order.

Investopedia explains Market Order

A market order guarantees execution and often has lower commissions because a broker does not need to do much work. One should be wary of using market orders on stocks with a low average daily volume: In such market conditions the ask price can be a lot higher than the current market price (resulting in a large spread). In other words, the investor may end up paying a lot more than he or she originally anticipated. It is much safer to use a market order on highvolume stocks.
