If you start to see the bid and ask prices drift widely apart, you should take note. A large bid-ask spread perhaps indicates light trading in a stock, which may indicate the pool of investors interested in trading the stock is dangerously small. Light trading volumes can result in you paying too much for a stock or not getting a very good price when you sell.
