Have a look at MaxPriceLevels (1090) that was introduced with FIX 5.0 SP1 to 
prevent an order to execute beyond a pre-defined number of price levels. 
Setting it to 1 would convey a single price restriction. However, a limit order 
might be executed at a better price than given in the order. This would still 
need to be solved otherwise, e.g. ExecInst=b=Strict Limit. 

I do wonder why someone would refuse a price improvement :-)
