# Select the '''Require order confirmation''' check box to have the opportunity to confirm or reject each order before it is sent to the execution gateway.
# Select '''Replace to Market Partially Filled Orders''' check box to automatically convert the remaining portion of a partially filled limit order into a market order. For example, there is a sell limit order above the market price for 10 contracts. The trading price touches the sell limit price, but pulls back. Six of the contracts are filled and the remaining four contracts are unfilled.
