How are we different

#1
hi All,

I am not sure if i am posting this at the right place ,why does market order get listed as Limit order .

I trade on HDFCSEC, i observed a curious thing today .

As usual , i did a "Get Quote" entered the symbol, the attributes got listed

and i clicked on the "click here to see five best bids "

i saw only one buy order for around 3 lakh shares for that Equity,

I placed a buy order with "MARKET" under CNC ,

here is the juicy part (fingers crossed)

in the Order Book tab,

i see the order, under the order price tab i see the last traded price of that share .(it should have been MKT right , i did not specify that price )

so i thought lets modify it, when i hit the modify order, i saw the dropdown was populated with LIMIT instead of MARKET

The same thing happened with one more share

Guide me if i am missing something
