another question.. what does 40top i would mean in trading? isn't that a contradiction?

That makes more sense... thank you.

I was told p/o means paired off. so i guess if the trader asks for a look on a stock and hes says 37m buy 80m p/o does the 80m mean it was crossed??

because at the moment he was explaining various things... i took notes and this is one that I still dont' understand. I'm not a trader and was just allowed to sit next to him for a short while.

thanks, I tried it, and came up empty.

I did, but didnt' really understand. I'm not on the trading desk right now and thought I'd ask someone here on the board to explain..

When a trader IM the floor broker and says get me a look on "stock" - and he replies slk 45m buy p/o - what does that mean?? Is there a link that someone could recommend that can explain listed or OtC tradgin jargon? thx

it mean to get a look on a stock? Working right now as an intern.. at a small shop. When the broker says p/o - what does that mean.. sorry to ask such basic questions
