ELO is similar to the limit order except that it will allow matching of up to ten price queues at a time. The ask order price of ELO can be inputted at nine spreads lower than the current bid or the bid order price can be inputted at nine spreads higher than current ask price. Any unfilled quantity of ELO after matching will be stored in the System as a normal limit order at the input order price. The number of price queues allowed for matching can be increased in future if necessary.

A limit price has to be input for SLO but there is no restriction on the limit price with respect to the best price on the other side of the market. SLO will match up to ten price queues (i.e. the best price queue and up to the tenth queue at 9 spreads away) as long as the traded price is not worse than the input limit price. Any unfilled quantity of SLO after matching will be cancelled and not stored in the System. The number of price queues allowed for matching can also be increased in future if necessary.
