inside market

inside market definition - finance
The range between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to sell (ask), as dictated by NASDAQ market makers for their own inventories. If an order doesnÂ’t fall within the inside market range, it is considered outside of the inside market. This is different from a retail market, where price quotes reflect the prices that customers pay dealers.
