[order level?]

Thanks thats useful, i have another follow up question. 

 

Using the example above, say that BARC shares are priced at 209 and I put my order level down as 210, that means the shares will be purchased immediately, is that correct? 

 

What if I put that order level down at midnight when the market is closed. Then will the order only execute when the market opens? 

 

I'm trying to purchase additional Amazon shares at 9am UK time, and have put my order level above the level that it is priced. Aware that NASDAQ only opens at 2.30pm UK time, however there seem to be minor fluctuations with the share price and it seems to be going up. If my order level is below the share price when the market opens, will my order not be executed? Or will it take into account what the share price was when I actually  placed the order? 

I have the same question
