at the close
Also known as ‘on close.’
The end of a trading session. Sometimes this refers more specifically to a market or limit order to be executed just before the close of a trading session. Usually ‘just before’ is considered within the last 30 seconds of trading. Brokers never guarantee the success of such trades, and usually they are canceled if unsuccessful. A third definition may be the price of the last trade of a security on a trading day.
