Market not held order

This is a market order - i.e. an order to buy or sell securities at the best price - but with the crucial difference that the broker has discretion to execute the order when he feels it is best. If the broker feels that the market will decline, he may hold the order to try to get a better fill.

Market Not Held Order

Also a market order, but the investor is allowing the floor broker to use his own discretion as to the exact timing of the execution. If the floor broker expects a decline in price and he is holding a "market not held buy order", he (she) may wait to buy, figuring that a better price will soon be available. There is no guarantee that a "market not held order" will be filled.
