Explain the Bid/Ask?

Posted at: 2014-12-05 
First of all, you are talking wildly risky bulletin board pink sheet stocks at $0.0006 per share that serious investors do not even look at.

But, ASK price is what a seller is asking for the shares per share that they want you to buy them for. It is an offer to sell. BID price is what a buyer is making an offer to buy the shares for per share. A market sell order will go in at the bid price and a market buy order will go in at the ask price. A market order will fill the order with that which is available. A limit order is an order at a set price per share that may or may not fill.

What you show is 14,682,400 shares offer(s) to buy at 0.0006 per share plus commission and fees and offer(s) to sell 102,537,300 shares at 0.0007 per share plus commission and fees. The trades occur when buyer and seller agree at a price.

Whether you want the ask or bid to be high or low depends on whether you are the buyer or seller.

Okay, what is a good number? high on the Ask or the the Bid? For example: 0.0006 x14,682,400 & 0.0007 x102,537,300 what is this saying? thanks!!!

to me it seems more orders are for the .0007 at 102M vs 14M selling at .0006
