Selling ?

Hey all I am young and new to this so I was wondering, when you want to sell your stocks, can you just sell at what the reports are showing
ex: $3.94 a share will you get that price per share you own ?
or do you have to have buyers and then the price fluctuates with the current value ?
Thanks
John

Hi John, welcome to the Community!

Your sale price is whatever the "bid" is at that very second. You can get a quote from your broker or from a site like yahoo finance.

Prices will fluctuate throughout the day as the stock market is open but any sale is going to be at whatever the bid price is at that time the order is placed assuming it is a market order.

Hope that helps!
