# Taking available liquidity

How to tap into the Mangrove's liquidity

![A market order consumes the offers starting from the best price, making sure that the limit price set by the taker is always satisfied.](https://3197749937-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MdT1ftsp-ASVL0f7MSf%2Fuploads%2F6uNryC8J0kXjpLVdnP4Y%2FtakerOrder1.png?alt=media\&token=a07e8ccc-f476-4133-bce5-9b2c1a2897f8) ![A taker may snipe a custom set of offers, targeting those that have the lowest required gas for instance.](https://3197749937-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MdT1ftsp-ASVL0f7MSf%2Fuploads%2FJXvf3tqAEMKaxvdKdvjc%2FtakerOrder2.png?alt=media\&token=6630ade1-c40b-4691-9090-30190c98d26b)

### Taking offers

The main way to consume liquidity on Mangrove is through a market order, a configurable type of order that executes offers from best to worst. The [Taking offers](/mangrove-core/technical-references/taking-and-making-offers/taker-order.md) section details how market orders work, and covers [offer sniping](/mangrove-core/technical-references/taking-and-making-offers/taker-order.md#offer-sniping) as well, wherein one can target individual offers.

### Cleaning offers

Offers on Mangrove can fail. Liquidity-taking functions can also be used to trigger failing offers and take them out of Mangrove. The [Cleaning offers](/mangrove-core/how-to-guides/cleaning-an-offer.md) section details how to safely trigger failing offers and make a profit doing so.

### Delegation

An allowance mechanism lets you separate the address that provides the funds and the address that originates the buy/sell transactions. The [Delegation](/mangrove-core/technical-references/taking-and-making-offers/taker-order/delegate-takers.md) section details how to let other addresses use your funds.
