medium · Market Microstructure

A trader uses an iceberg with a peak of 1,000 and a total of 5,000. A market order for 500 shares hits the peak.

What is the status of the order's time priority now?

  1. The priority is reset because the order size changed.
  2. The 500 remaining shares move behind any orders that arrived after T=0.
  3. The order is automatically hidden until the next replenishment.
  4. It maintains its original time priority for the remaining 500 shares in the peak.
