SampleIn this example, the order is submitted for a limit price (Tag 44) of 65950 or better. As it is a buy order, a better price indicates a price lower than 65950. By setting Time-In-Force (Tag 59) to 1, the GTC order is defined. It is open across multiple trading sessions until it is canceled, filled by the market or expired.
