I recently spent time on a BB firm's equity desk, saw some stuff in the chats such as:

(Example): 2m GOOG po 600. What does the "po" stand for/ mean

Also, when refering to prices they would sometimes say "$50 on top" What does the "on top" mean.

Put some terms you guys have heard up and lets discuss

 

Also, when deciding to print (i.e., put their order on the tape), they refered to printing super & natural. any ideas?
