the stock market, who am I “selling” to?

468 viewsEconomicsOther

I understand but I don’t. When I “sell” stocks, who am I selling to exactly? The people who are buying in that exact moment? The exchange institution? Same when I’m “buying”.

If you’re selling stocks but no one is buying, your order will stay until someone wants to buy stocks for the set price.

So when you buy stocks you buy it from those who are selling at that set price.

Sometimes when people tries to abandon a crashing stock everyone is selling, but if no one is buying they cant sell it.
