Extended Hours Trading Hours for the Top 25 Retail Stock Brokers

Added on by C. Maoxian.

Extended hours trading is available at Ally Invest. You may enter pre-market orders between 8:00 am – 9:30 am ET or post-market orders (also called after-hours orders) between 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm ET. On days when the market closes early, the extended hours trading session runs from 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm ET. You may enter limit orders only. An order placed during an extended hours trading session is only good for that session. If your order is not executed during a specific extended hours session, the order expires at the end of the session and does not roll into the next traditional or extended hours session. You may cancel an order that has not been executed before the close of an extended hours session. For settlement and clearing purposes, orders executed during an extended hours session are considered to have been executed during the day's traditional session. Please refer to the additional disclaimer for extended hours trading.
