What to expect during times of market volatility and fast markets

A fast market occurs when a sudden demand to buy or sell shares exceeds the supply of shares offered, thus resulting in a dramatic price movement. If an investor places a market order (next available price), he or she could end up buying or selling shares at a price considerably different from the quoted price displayed seconds earlier.

Example:

9:00 a.m.Market order at $5.00/fast moving issue

9:02 a.m.Order executed @ $20

In a fast moving market, a way to avoid the possibility of the execution of a trade at a price higher (buy) or lower (sell) than anticipated, the investor may wish to enter a limit order (rather than the market order) which allows him/her to set a specific buy price at the maximum price he/she is willing to pay for the security or a sell price at the minimum he/she is willing to receive.

The investor should also be aware that in times of high market volume and market volatility, market makers may execute orders manually or reduce the size guarantee of a traded security, resulting in possible delays in order executions and losses.
