Very good advise so far.

I would not use market order for after hours or pre market trading. Also, be careful with market orders if the stock is on a wild ride that day. Should not be a problem with big well know companies.

I tend to always use limit as the cost is the same these days. Good for day is just that, good until filled means order will stay until filled. Or you cancel them.

Stop Limit, or "Limit Loss" will sell if stock falls below certain price. Lets say you bought Stock "x" at $25 per share, crazy rally went to $500. You can put a stop Limit at $400, stock drops to $400 (or less) you position is liquidated to keep your loss from any lower.(actually your gain any less).
