## Vocabulary
Bid and ask
: Respectively the price for buying and selling a stock or other financial
instrument. The closer the spread of the two prices is, the more liquidity there
is in the market for that product.
Continuous Integration
: The practice of automating the integration of code from multiple contributors
into a single software project.
Market-making
: A market-maker provides liquidity to the market by continuously quoting both
sell and trade prices on the market, hoping to make a profit on the *bid-ask
spread*.
