if $20 million worth of oil is put up at 21 i think that:
A buys the first $1 million, SO deleted
B buys up to lot $11 milion, SO deleted
C buys up to lot $13 million, SO deleted
D buys rest of oil, oil cleared, SO remains,
E has not filled orders yet.

...
which becomes:
D (first in line under 21) up to $43 million worth of oil to be filled until SO is deleted
E (second in line under 21, first in line under 25) up to $85 million worth of oil to be filled until SO is deleted


Your last 2 lines are incorrect. D bought at least 1 oil, so his SO is moved to the end of the queue. The queue is now E (first in line), followed by D (last in line). The next batch of oil that comes along is always checked against E first. If it is more than $25, then it checks the next guy down the line (and E remains first in line), etc.
