Apologies for the very basic question but I cannot find a definition in the SC website.

A bid trade occurs when someone sells into a bid, with a sell market order for instance.
An ask trade occurs when someone buys into an offer, with a buy market order or a "buy ask" order.

I am correct?

Thank you for clarifying.
