An Odd Lot is a number of shares less than 100.

A Round Lot is 100 shares of stock and any number of shares that is a multiple of 100 is a round lot.

An order for a number of shares greater than 100, but not a multiple of 100 is called a Mixed Lot.

You can trade any number of shares that you like but odd lot orders are not posted to the bid/ask data on exchanges (NBBO) and they are not reported on most public data feeds.
