Gary thanks. I usually pay the ask too. If I'm not willing to pay the ask, usually I'm not willing to own the darn thing. Similarly, when I want to get out, I usually hit the bid. Holding on for the spread has cost me too much in the past, both in lost opportunities and in unwanted inventory.
The exception is when I'm trying to build a position in a thinly traded stock. In that situation, I'm often on the bid, and will also hit the ask occasionally.
