break price
Definition
To move general equities prices to a point that will make a trade more likely; that is, by increasing a bid or decreasing an offer. This tightening of prices narrows the spread and creates a more liquid market. The action is often used to reduce one's ownership, therefore breaking price from where the sale or purchase of the equities took place. For example, an investor with a long position would break price downward.
