Market price is the market price in the standard order form of US stocks. No specific price is required. Buy or sell at the current market price. Place an order 9:30-16:00 EST.
Market order guarantees execution, but does not guarantee the execution price. In particular, when the market changes rapidly, the market order may be executed at a higher or lower price.
Market orders placed prior to the start of regular trading hours will be executed at the opening price of the day; the opening price of the day may not necessarily be the same as the closing price of the previous day and may be executed at a higher or lower price.
