stock trading after hours, close, open price?
I am new to trading and have noticed that the closing price of a stock is many times different than its opening price the next day. If I trade after hours, what price do I get? is it the opening price for the next day or do I actually get a price in between? Thank you

- You get whatever price prevails at the time you place your order. People are constantly buying and selling (yes, 24 hours per day) so there's always a market and it may be very different from the closing price or the next days opening price.
