Bid is the price you are selling the currency pair at. Ask is the price you are buying at.

Normally, the charts are drawn using the Bid price (e.g. MetaTrader 4 charts are drawn that way). In some platforms, you can turn on Ask line display if you need it.

The bid is the maximum price a buyer is willing to pay while the ask price is minimum price the seller is willing to accept for what is being sold.

Hi. Iwonder whot it Bid and Ask? and which price is shown on platform. Bid or Ask?Thanks

Hi Edward,
Welcome to the forum and the bid is the rate at which you are selling and ask is the price at which you are purchasing..hope that clarifies it. Check out a few free online resources for more info on the market, on trading..e.g. Babypips and good luck.

Simple explanations and a great site for new traders like me,to add up to this you can see both the bid ans ask prices on the platform by settings.All the best
 
Hello Edward. The Bid and the Ask are 2 quotes of an asset, they represent the best available buying and selling prices at any given moment. Hope it helps. If you have any questions i'll be glad to help.
