lots


lots.

The casting of lots was an ancient method of making a choice, settling a dispute, or determining a course of action. In biblical times lots were cast to determine the will of God (it is believed that the Urim and Thummim, mysterious sacred objects carved on the breastplate of the high priest, were originally used for casting lots and determining a course of action), to discover the guilty, to select officials, and in numerous other instances. The lot, probably a stone, die, or other object, was cast upon the ground, the manner of its fall determining the question in doubt; in other cases, lots were cast into a receptacle and drawn from it. It is possible that dice originated not as a game but as a device for casting lots.

Lots


Lots

In the context of general equities, this blocks or portions of trades. Can express a specific transaction in a stock at a certain time, often implying execution at the same price (e.g., "I traded 40m in two lots of 10 and four lots of 5.").

Lots

1. Pieces of land that are bought or sold as units.

2. Groups of securities or derivatives traded as units, often in groups of 100. Some derivatives, especially exchange-traded funds, set a minimum lot that may be traded; for example, one may only trade a certain ETF in lots of 100. Exchanges and regulators set standard lots, which are used in contracts of trade. This practice means that an investor knows how many securities or derivatives he/she is buying or selling in a given transaction.
