## What are Order Executors?

D8X allows for [conditional orders](/d8x/perpetual-contracts-guide/order-types.md) such as limit and stop-limit orders. Conditional orders are cryptographically signed by the trader and executed by third parties - order executors - once the AMM prices meet the order conditions.&#x20;

The executor [earns a fee for their service](/d8x/perpetual-contracts-guide/fee-structure.md#conditional-orders-fees), paid for by the trader. Anyone can be an executor.

## How can you become an Order Executor?

The [D8X Futures Node SDK provides functions to refer orders.](/d8x/node-sdk/modules.md)

The [D8X open-source order executor bots allow to execute orders](https://github.com/D8-X/d8x-order-executor).&#x20;
