bid price vs bidding price

Both 'bid price' and 'bidding price' are correct, but they are used in slightly different contexts. 'Bid price' refers to the price a buyer is willing to pay for a product or service in an auction or negotiation. On the other hand, 'bidding price' is less common and could be used to refer to the price at which someone is currently bidding in an auction.
