# Key Concepts

#### Sealed Order Flow

Orders (including stops and limits) are submitted in encrypted or committed form and remain opaque until batch closure.

**Privacy Enforcement** A distributed matching process ensures no single party can reconstruct individual orders prematurely.

**Scope**

* Market orders
* Limit orders
* Stop-loss orders
* Take-profit orders
* Advanced conditional orders (roadmap)
