Break Price

0.01 sec.

Break price

Used in the context of general equities. Change one's offering or bid prices to move to a more realistic, tight level where execution is more feasible. Often done to trim one's position, thus "breaking price" from where the trades occurred (if long, "break price" downward by a certain amount).

Break Price

To increase a bid or decrease an offer to a price where a trade is more likely to take place. Breaking price can narrow the bid-ask spread and makes a market more liquid.
