Execute And EliminateAn Execute and Eliminate order is an order that may be executed fully or partially, and if it is executed partially, the unexecuted part of the order is eliminated instead of being left in the order book. Example: The client tells the broker to purchase 100 shares in AT&T for a maximum share price of $50. When the share price of AT&T matches the price, the broker will execute the order. However, there wasn’t 100 shares for sale for this price, only 80. 80 shares are bought and the order is then eliminated from the order book. The broker will not continue to hunt for the remaining 20 shares. Execute and Eliminate is an order that can be used with human brokers and in electronic trading service systems. |
