# Place a limit order

If you want to place a limit order, you can use `placeLimitOrder`

```typescript
const pool = {
  pay_coin_type: '0x26b3bc67befc214058ca78ea9a2690298d731a2d4309485ec3d40198063c4abc::usdc::USDC',
  target_coin_type: '0x26b3bc67befc214058ca78ea9a2690298d731a2d4309485ec3d40198063c4abc::usdt::USDT',
  indexer_id: '0xc420fb32c3dd279d20b55daeb08973e577df5fed1b758b839d4eec22da54bde8',
}
const LimitOrderStatus = {
  Running: 'Running',
  PartialCompleted: 'PartialCompleted',
  Completed: 'Completed',
  Cancelled: 'Cancelled',
}
const pay_coin_amount = 2000000
const price = 1.7
const expired_ts = Date.parse(new Date().toString()) + 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000
const send_key_pair = 'THE_KEY_PAIR_GENERATED_BY_YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY'

const payload = await sdk.LimitOrder.placeLimitOrder({
  pay_coin_amount,
  price,
  expired_ts,
  pay_coin_type: pool.pay_coin_type,
  target_coin_type: pool.target_coin_type,
  target_decimal: 6,
  pay_decimal: 6,
})

const tx_result = await sdk.FullClient.executeTx(send_key_pair, payload, false)
```
