Mine and Yours
Trading floor jargon where 'mine' means the trader wants to buy (taking the offer) and 'yours' means the trader wants to sell (hitting the bid). Used in interbank and institutional trading.
Example
“On the interbank trading desk, the dealer shouted 'mine!' to indicate he was buying $10 million EUR/USD at the quoted offer price.”
