Order Execution

Posted by Liam on 10/13/2005, 7:17 pm

Why, during the day, do stocks simply seem to stop trading. If there are bids and asks at all times, according to my level 2s, why aren't they being executed. Is it that there is no "match" between bid and asks? I just hate when it gets slow, especially during that lunch hour lull.
