I have set a price 4.90 to sell a stock, and at last it was sold at 4.95
and I have set a price 8.45 to buy a stock, and at last it was bought at 8.42
the problem is imagine I am a seller, of course, if there is a buyer calling 4.95, i will definitely sell the stock at 4.95, so the price is higher than the price that seller had set.
However, putting this scenario into a buyer's view, if the buyer is the one who initiates the trading, how come the price is lower than the price that buyer set.
So i would like to know how the trading is made in stock market especially through ebanking? and how the trade is matched when a trade is issued?
I feel a mess as in my situation, I am the "winner" in both buyer's and seller's views. I can sell at a higher price and buy at a lower price in accordance to my setting. You may answer in either in Chinese or English. Thanks in advance!
