General TradingF
Fill
A fill occurs when a trade order has been executed and completed. The fill confirms that a buy or sell order has been matched with a counterparty, and the trade has been processed at a specific price.
Example
“The trader placed a limit buy order for 100 shares of AAPL at $175, and received a fill notification confirming the order was executed at $174.98 as the stock dipped briefly.”
