It's because of the Bid and Ask prices...the Sell and the Buy prices. The difference is what the marketmaker makes by being a part of the investment transaction. The wider the spread between the Bid and Ask prices the less frequent the trading. As the stock trades more often and with more volume the spread narrows.
