Above 20mio you have to bid....below 20mio it's not a must you can apply at average....but to answer you yes you can put in a competitive bid even at 100k. possunt quia posse videntur

Check out the comms for 5 mio...but most brokers they have set the minimum as 500 bob...so if you transact 100,000...you will be charged 500 bob
