MIT ( Market-If-Touched) Order: ( a) for buy orders, an order with a trigger price below the offer which becomes eligible for execution at its limit price or better when the market trades at or below the trigger price; or ( b) for sell orders, an order with a trigger price above the bid which becomes eligible for execution at its limit price or better when the market trades at or above the trigger price; and,
