I am trying to sell +30000 shares of one company at market price and whenever i try to sell my shares it says "invalid price"
Most common mistake:
Decimal separator is a POINT not a COMMA.
Maybe this helps.
That mistake sure is as old as this game, but why hasn't this been fixed ages ago? From my understanding it shouldn't take more than just a simple character replacement function which will just take 1 line of programming...

It's not a mistake, because in a hell of a lot of countries the POINT is used as decimal separator and the comma is used to separate the thousands, i.e. AS 1,000.00.
And as AS has a lot of international players ........
That is of course right. BUT, if we take into consideration that the first version of AS was made public in German and Germany is one of the countries where the comma is the decimal separator, it is definitely a mistake that this feature has not been taken care of for all these years. It shouldn't be too hard to add the code line:
$value=str_replace(",",".",$value);
And that should do the job. Then it wouldn't matter whether you insert a comma or a dot.
I was trying to sell them at 120 even. i tried 120, 120.00, 119.99, and 120.01.
you can only buy and sell shares at a very limited price range close to the value displayed. I don't recall the percentage, thou. maybe some one else can fill in.
It was at list price and it will only let it deviate 10%
