A partial fill is when only part of a limit order executes because not enough size sat at your price; the rest keeps waiting. Ask for 100, find 40 at your price, and 40 fill. [Read the size at the top of the book](https://mochatrade.com/learn/start-here/nvidia-trade-walkthrough) before placing, and see [how limit orders work on Mochatrade](https://mochatrade.com/support/order-types-available-on-mochatrade).
