I bought a share of a stock at 23.38 (limit order) yesterday. The price of the stock now is 24.26. Why is there a floating PnL of -1.12 and it’s still red? When will I see green and ‘profit’?

Sorry a beginner here.
I’m using Tiger Brokers.

Might be either due to forex losses (if you're buying in foreign currency) or due to commissions (if they were not waived).

Just bought a stock at limit order price on Tiger Brokers. When I view my holdings, the amount is slightly higher?

Can you place a buy limit order above the current share price (or place a sell limit order below the current share price vice versa)?

I am trying to understand what is the difference between a stop order, and a limit order for stock purchase. If I am aiming to purchase a stock when it hits $x price, do I use stop, or limit order?

I placed a limit order for buying shares in IBKR but received the message about "market price cap" . I checked the orders & trades panel and it showed that my order had been cancelled, why so?

I just started an account with SAXO, deposited the money in SGD and bought some stocks in USD. The stock price went up. But when I looked at the stock statement, there was a profit loss in SGD. Why?
