If you want shares NOW..buy in at the ASK. Right side of the spread. For instance, BID = 1.08..ASK = 1.10. If you buy the ASK (1.10) Most likely it will fill. If you put your Buy in at the BID you'll get a better price...but the stock may never hit the BID if it runs higher. Usually, the BID/ASK spread is small in margin...if you REALLY want the shares for sure..than slap the ask! If you want a few penny discount than hold for the BID price.

It's like buying a house. The ASK is 200K..so if you are willing to buy at 200K you will most likely get the house. If you decide to ONLY buy the House for a BID at 180K you may get the house or not. How bad do you want the house? How bad do other buyers want the House? They could put a BID in at 190K and your BID becomes worthless. Bid's are a gamble between a discount or loss of acquisition!
