The total time on test transform (ttt) order was introduced in Kochar, Li, and Shaked (2002) for nonnegative random variables, which has a close connection to the location independent riskier and the excess wealth orders. In this article, the ttt order is redefined for comparing not necessarily nonnegative random variables. Such an extension will lead us to conveniently derive several new intrinsic properties of the ttt order. In particular, we establish an interesting separation result on the connection between the ttt and the excess wealth orders. As two applications of this separation result, we obtain the generating process of the ttt order in terms of mean-decreasing right stretches and the closure property of the ttt order under convolutions. The generating process of the ttt order parallels those of the location independent riskier and the excess wealth orders established by Landsberger and Meilijson (1994).
