if someone sells then someone bought so how does selling and buying affect the price instead of just cancelling each other out?

The fuck?

the last item sold on the market was priced at 10.00.
I have an item I want to sell at 9.00.
Someone wants to buy that item, and thinks that 9 is a better deal than 10, so they buy it.
now the last item sold in the market was valued at 9.00.

repeat ad infinatum.

You have the lower body and you have no upper body, you got a problem building...wait a minute. You have the upper body, and you have no legs, you got a problem building your legs. You have the upper...you have the lower body and you don't have the upper body, the upper body, it is easier to build. So if you have the lower body and you don't have the upper body, it is easier to build the upper body. You have the upper body and you don't have the legs, you got a problem building the lower body... No, you don't understand. You have the upper body, but you don't have the lower body, you got a problem building downstairs. You got the up- legs on the bottom, it is easier to build on the top, so you don't have much as a problem. Yeah.

because you have to pay tax when buying stocks so if people are buying they are putting lots of tax money into economy and its value increases

but when people sell that tax is given back since selling is the opposite of buying so it takes money out of the stock market and it loses value

thanks man that makes a lot of sense

What is supply and demand?

It has to do with demand. If enough people are buying, it doesn't matter how many people are selling. People want to buy it, and everything is scarce, so naturally the price goes up. It's a valued commodity; people are willing to pay top-dollar for it.
Similarly, if more people are selling than buying, it's a good indicator that nobody wants it anymore; the demand is no longer there. Naturally, the price keeps going down until it reaches a price where someone would want to buy it again.

Price is controlled by carefully crafted bots and nothing else. The aim is to make the traders think that they can control the price while the exchange collects fees. What you are really seeing is a barrage of bid rigging and spoof orders.

If you need help understanding order books, I recommend downloading and playing EVE Online (free to play now), mining some shit and selling it with a market order and a sell order.

How do you think "selling" works user?

10 people sell -- 12 people buy
people can sell for higher ->price goes up
12 people sell -- 10 people buy
people go for lower price to sell ->price goes down

10 people sell btc -- 100 people buy btc
price skyrockets, people stop selling, price keeps building till all the normies bought it at ridiculous price, people start selling, no more normies to sell to, price dumps, normies drop out at massive loss, price stabilizes.

kek. you know what I mean. When the number of people wanting to sell is higher than the number of people wanting to buy, the price goes down to entice those buyers who are holding out.

Holy fuck your retarded. Anyway, to answer your question, each trade is made up of a limit order and a market execution. The market execution determines the spot price and removes the limit order that you see on the book. If enough people market buy, it will clear the sell side of the books and the spot price will rise

Market orders move the price in the opposite direction. So, the more impulsive market participant repels the price from him/her.

Now imagine if more people bought than sold

That's supply and demand
