(3) if the fund chooses to classify the position through evaluation of how long it would take to liquidate the entire position (rather than basing it on the sizes it would reasonably anticipated trading).
In (1) and (2), a fund would classify using the reasonably anticipated trade size for each portion of the position.
(12) Indicate the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall pursuant to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles 7 (ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement).
