Hi James,

First of all, that market maker has to find a buyer, if there are no buyers then there's a good chance the bid will fall back to $0.03 or $0.02 before you can get out in time. And 2M shares is a lot, you will probably be selling out in lots of 5000, 10000, or 20000 shares. As to who gets to sell their 2M shares first, its a first come first serve basis. If your order clocks in at an earlier time, then you are first to sell. This is if you are selling at the market order. Limit orders will usually be last. Hope this helps.
