You ‘offer ‘ your shares to the market — basically place them on to the market , at your price.

If you want or need to ‘take ‘ a price- that is Sell , spot . Now . You often have to offer into the bid , as others are generally before you on the offer . Depends on daily volume .

If there is plenty of liquidity- be patient. Within reason. Offer your shares at recent sales price . The higher of bid / offer if seeking to get swiftly ‘done ‘ .
You always risk - sudden market movements against you . News . A large seller , and you may miss out on selling .
You can decide to close within timeframe, eg by end of day .
Or if at start of the day - take a stab at higher price . Then reassess as see how market unfolds .

I truly don’t think you go into the market , investing , to muck around .
You can change your mind or need to sell at any time , but Best is to buy . Have a clear idea of why you hold , monitor .
Clear targets or factors which could make you decide to sell, at what price, or stop loss .

I think Elixnol , is a good Hold . Everyone’s circumstances and sentiment are different
