Order book mechanics describe the fundamental processes by which buy and sell orders are collected, matched, and executed on a trading exchange. This system displays current bids and asks for an asset, providing insight into market depth and liquidity. Understanding these mechanics is crucial for efficient price discovery and trade execution.
