動機付けの引用符とあなたを鼓舞するためにインスピレーションことわざ

A quote is the last price at which a security or commodity traded, meaning the most recent price on which a buyer and seller agreed and at which some amount of the asset was transacted.

The bid or ask quotes are the most current prices and quantities at which the shares can be bought or sold. The bid quote shows the price and quantity at which a current buyer is willing to purchase the shares, while the ask shows what a current participant is willing to sell the shares for.

This is also known as an asset's "quoted price."

Historical quotes may be referenced by investors for the sake of examining potential trends in a security’s market activity and volatility. Quotes can be represented in a relation to an instance of time, allowing for comparisons with comparable periods. For instance, investors might reference quotes from the same day, one year apart in order to chart the potential trajectory for the security. They could also compare quotes across a day of trading, especially if there is volatility, in order to develop an investing strategy in response to the activity.

Quotes may be provided by a variety of outlets, such as investment news sites and trading platforms. There may be a delay in the reporting of such quotes, especially from free services that are public available. Trading and investing platforms may offer quotes as close to real-time as possible as a service to their subscribers. This may be especially crucial for subscribers who want to be able to make decisions on their trading activity as quotes become available. Investing platforms might also allow users to set up quote-driven alerts that are sent when shares cross certain thresholds. Such notifications can also be tied to automated responses. For example, an investor might put a sell order in place that is contingent on receiving a quote that shares of a security have reached a desired threshold.
