                           .OrderBy(item=>item.Element("ClosingMarketValue"))
                           .Select(item=> new {
                                Col1 = item.Element("MSDWSecurityCode").Value,
                                Col2 = item.Element("ClosingMarketValue").Value

Try
.OrderBy(item=>item.Element("ClosingMarketValue").Value)

Thanks:) I missed .Value
even if i use .value result is not expected.
This helps me .OrderBy(item => (float?)item.Element("ClosingMarketValue"))

To get the top 10 use
.Take(10)
after the .Select(....)
Be sure you have the XML namespaces correct.
