Market Order: With this order type, you can place a buy or sell order at the current market price. There may be a price difference between the time you place the order and the confirmation of the order. You will find out the actual trading price when you receive the order confirmation.
Example: You place an order to Buy 100 shares of Microsoft at Market. The best offer is currently 65. The order may be executed at 65 or whatever the best offer changes to while your market order is open.
Market On Open (MOO): A buy or sell order that is to be executed at the market's open. The listed opening price is not guaranteed, but the order will be executed within a price range, or not at all.
Market On Close (MOC): A buy or sell order that is to be executed as a market order at the end of the day or as close as possible to the end of the day.
Limit Order: This order type allows you to select a specific price at which you want your order to be executed. The order will be executed at that price or better.
Example: Microsoft is currently at $69. You place an order to buy Microsoft at $68 or lower. When the market hits $68, or falls below $68, the order will be executed.
Stop Market Order: With this order type, you can decide a specific price at which you want your order to be triggered. The order then turns into a market order and is executed at the market price.
Example: You own 1000 shares of Microsoft at $72. The current price is $70. You place a Sell Stop Market order with a stop price of $68. A market order will be sent once the current price reaches or passes $68.
Stop Limit Order: This is a limit order to buy or sell at the specified limit price if the specified stop price is reached or passed. The stop price must be below (above) the current price if the order is a sell (buy).
Example: You own 1000 shares of Microsoft at $72. The current price is $70. You place a Sell Stop Limit order with a stop price of $68 and a limit price of $67. A limit order at the price of $67 will be sent out once the current price reaches or passes $68.
Trailing Stop: A stop market order that follows (trails) the current price with a difference of the specified trail amount, creating a new stop market order, as the current price moves away from the original price.
Example: You place a Trailing Stop order of 2 points as the Trail Amount, when the current price is $70, therefore your trigger price is $68. The price increases to $71 a share. Your new trigger price will automatically change to $69. If the price reverses and goes down, the trailing stop will place a market sell order once it reaches $69 a share.
Trailing Stop Limit: Similar to the Trailing Stop order, the Trailing Stop Limit follows (trails) the current price with a difference of the specified trail amount, until the market reverses, creating a new stop limit order. When the market reaches the stop price, an order is placed using the stop price and plus or minus the offset as the limit price.
Example: You place a Trailing Stop Limit order of 1 point as the Trail amount with an offset of $.50, when the current price is $70, therefore your trigger price is $69. The stop price is determined by the last price minus/plus the trail amount. A limit order is placed at $68.50.
Trailing Stop Limit with a Condition: The market goes up and hits the profit objective of $72. The trader decides to remain in the market, but wants to control his downside risk. So he places a conditional order that changes the trail amount from $1.00 to .10¢ when the market reaches the profit objective. The stop price changes from $71.00 to $71.90. A reversal of .10¢ will trigger the stop order and place a limit order at $71.40, reflecting the .50¢ limit offset.
PostNoPref: The order is sent to ARCA without being preferenced out to other Market Makers and ECNs. The order will stay on ARCA’s internal book until it is filled.
Example: You place an order on ARCA. You check the PostNoPref box and send the order out. It remains on the ARCA internal book for the day.
Preference: An Order Type used with SelectNet to designate what MarketMaker the trader wants to preference. You can also preference ECNs. You can preference using ARCA or SelectNet.
Note: This is not a SelectNet Broadcast.
Example: You choose ARCA or SelectNet as the trading route, click the preference check box, specify a Market Maker or ECN identification, then send the order to preference that participant. You can also click on the Market Maker or ECN identification in the Level 2 panel to automatically fill in the preference box.
Discretionary (Proactive): Proactive Discretionary orders are the same as Discretionary orders. They attempt to hit/take any bid/offer that falls within the discretionary range, and accept any preference order coming into it. Discretionary orders do not execute outside the NBBO unless the Show price is preferenced.
Example: You place an order with an ECN to buy 1000 shares of MSFT at $71 a share. You set a discretionary price at the best bid, so when the best bid price is no longer at $71 a share, you will fill the rest of the order at the best bid price.
Best Bid or Offer (BBO): This order type sends a limit order with a price that equals the current bid or offer.
Example: You choose to buy 1000 shares of MSFT. You choose the BBO Order Type to buy at the current offer.
Midpoint (MID): With this order type you can buy or sell at the midpoint between the best bid and the best offer.
Example: You decide to buy 1000 shares of Microsoft at the Midpoint, and to offset the midpoint by a point, to buy at one point higher or lower than the midpoint.
BID: Your order will be sent as a limit order with a price equal to the current best bid.
Example: You place an order to buy with the order type BID. If the current best bid is 72, your order will be sent as a limit order at 72.
