How is the spread devided between buyer, seller and market maker?
For a given stock, if:

a seller places a sell limit order at 100 dollars;
a buyer places a buy limit order at 200 dollars;

At what price will the transaction be executed and who will pay/get how much?

At what price will the transaction be executed and who will pay/get how much?

There will be two transactions. The market maker will buy the stock from the seller for 0 and sell it to the buyer for 0.
