Ask Size
The ask size refers to the number of units of a security that an investor is willing to sell at the ask price or offer price. It represents the quantity of a security available for sale at the specified price in the market. The ask price is the price at which a seller is willing to sell, and the ask size shows the total number of shares, contracts, or units offered at that price. It helps buyers understand the available supply at that price level in the market.
