An order to be executed without splits in the prices is usually considered a 
"block" order, i.e. the order is executed with the instruction to complete the 
entire order at a single price level.  

Since it is not possible to guarantee this on most electronic markets without 
pre-negotiation and block reporting, I'm not aware of any standard instructions 
in 4.x to specify an order with single price execution only.  

Electronic venues that offer block facilitation often use custom tags and/or 
are designed to only execute an order at a single price.
