just a quick question lets just say for example the stock symbol GFY ..

last trade :100
bid: 90
ask: 100

does bid mean the price which i can buy the stock ?
so i can buy it right now for like 90 a share and sell it for 100 a share?
you can buy for 100 and sell for 90.

the difference is the spread.

you bid money for stocks (90)
the seller is asking for money (100)
