One has to call his/her broker on the phone. There are no published bids/asks. There are no Level ll Quotes. There is no internet trading. Everything is done on the telephone. When you place your BUY order, your broker will attempt to match your BUY order with a corresponding SELL order.
Above info result of my trip to local Scottrade branch office, including conversation w/ Branch Manager.
(A trusted advisor highly recommended LIMIT Orders only).
