| Auto-Exit OrdersThe following auto exit orders will be placed automatically for all fills on the Trade For You service. These orders are designed to exit for the best outcome of the client without the client needing to do anything. They should result in clients having no stock at expiration. Details of these orders are complex and advanced orders (which is a benefit of this service).
