    It should not matter how many stocks you purchase, the buy order should be processed nearly instantly. Sometimes, a stock that has a lower daily trade volume will take a bit longer but it should go through within minutes regardless of the number of shares.

    Some online brokers even offer a guarantee that your order will be executed within a certain time window-- like 7 seconds.
