Stock sell value differs from onscreen value

  1. Hello dear community,

    I did purchase one stock for 100usd although the onscreen value was 150usd,

    Why such a price different if the value shown onscreen was 50usd higher that the actual purchase?

    If I check now the stock the onscreen value is again 150 but for selling is 100, why this price gap?

    Posts details, too vague. Anyway not very likely at all.

    Was it after hours or is the stock really ummm dogecoin or doogiecoin crapto stuff?

  5. Either you are using some really delayed feed broker or confusing the execution price that is printing with bid/offers being shown. Do you have Level 2 data access then you can see what is going on?
