Let's say there are only 2 people involved, A and B
A is the only one owning shares and is selling them for 10$
B has no shares but has a buy order for 9$
Nothing happens here because no one is willing to sell to B for 9$ and no one is willing to buy from A for 10$
In this case the buy price is 10 ( you buy from A ) and the sell price is 9$ (you sell to B).
It you buy and then sell you lose money, you take from A then give it to B for less.
On top of this you may need to pay fees that change the order prices

Thnx for your time... I have another question ... If you close the trade(on etoro) when the market is close(like this time) when you close actually? Now or exactly the what time does the market open? I mean maybe the price now until the market is open is different but when actually buy the stock?

You can only trade when the market is open, if your broker allows extended hours, you can do that also during premarket and afterhours. You can place an order but it won't be fullfilled until the market opens.
