Odd lots

  1. Can someone please explain to me about odd lots on the stockmarket.

    Am I right in thinking that an add lot is anything below 100 shares?

    If so is it possible to have an order in to buy 525 shares of something and only get filled on 500 even though the price traded below the limit price?

    Thanks
