Trigger price in delivery trade

#1
I'm very new to investing and have started using Canmoney account. A few things about placing a buy order are not clear to me. Please help me understand this...

Q 1. In a cash n carry buy limit order, can I specify trigger price?

The Canmoney portal says that under stop loss trade, a fresh order cannot be placed without simultaneously placing a cover order and the fresh order has to be a market order. (I've given towards the end the text which is confusing me)

Q 2. So, does this mean that if I select SL trade, I can specify trigger price but will not be able to specify limit? And I will have to necessarily place a cover order as well?

Based on other posts here, I know that canmoney seems to have the same interface and features as hdfc securites. So if you've used any of these platforms, it will be of great help.

Regards,
J.


Text from Canmoney tutor page:
What is fresh order?
The order which is placed for creating the position is called fresh order.

What is a cover order?

The fresh order as defined above will help you take a position. Assuming you have taken a buy position, your cover will naturally be a sell order. The cover order will be compulsorily have to be a SLTP order.

From where do I place the trigger orders?
Fresh order and cover order have to be placed from the same screen.

Can I place a limit fresh order?
No, fresh order is always a market order.
