Ep: 77 Trading During Pre-Market & After Hours Sessions

★ SUMMARY ★
in this week’s episode, what I’d like to do is share with you some insight about trading during pre-market and after-market hours.

I’m going to give you some insight about pre-market, after-market, trading in them, what is it that I do, what I don’t’ do, and that way you just get some insight if you want to trade pre-market or post-market.

In order to do this and show you some examples of what pre-market and post-market is, I’m going to be using the think or swim platform, with TD Ameritrade.

It’s just an easy platform to teach with, because I can make things larger and bigger, normally I do prefer the TC2000 for scanning stocks right here, or you can take a look at it at freestockcharts.com

But in general this platform, unless you have the platinum version, I believe, it doesn’t really allow you to see the pre-market and after-market hours, at least not very well.

I’m just going to use the think or swim to demonstrate this, because you can see here in the grey areas of the charting area that you can see that pre-market and after market, so first it’s after-market, and then the day will split, and then it’s pre-market that’s being shown.

It just depends on which stock you type in, whether that’s a Netflix, you can see all those little grey areas those are not regular trading time frames .

And if you go into the five minute, you can really start seeing those pre-market and after-market hours.

What is pre-market and after-market
First off, what is pre-market, after-market and give you the big picture of do I really trade during those time frames and is it worth it.

Long story short, pre-market and after-market hours are just not regular trading time frames, they are something after the 4 o’ clock bell, and something before the 9:30 opening bell.

You can trade pre-market quite early, I believe anywhere between the 4 am, which is the really early pre-market, but at 6 am, 8:30 am, is really when things start picking up, and you slowly can see that with the clock over here at the bottom.

  8. when exiting pre-market, does it include the Pre: +/- price? Ex: Stock closed at $1.00, the following morning the stock rose to $1.30 pre-market, if I sold pre-parket, do I get the 30% gain/loss?

  12. Would have saved me 25 minutes if you'd just title the video "I hate trading extended hours, dont do it blah blah it's pointless, its stupid, I hate it, never ever do it blah blah"

  13. How often do counter-trends happen? the advantage of buying pre-market would be if you wanted to see how futures were doing right before open. Especially if you wanted to get in right before the market closed on the previous day but wanted to confirm your entry wasn't going to get shot down the very next day.

  14. Fantastic advice, Sasha! I just subscribed. I like how you got right to the point with your tips; you focused on that throughout the video, and then chose to finish the video off with an inspirational message. I can't stand when tutorial videos fall off track halfway through with unnecessary comments and unrelated stories, not that some personal thoughts are unwelcome, it's just that it should be left for when the tutorial has officially finished. Well done!

  18. sasha what price would be followed if there are high buyers of high
    price and high sellers of low price on the same stock on pre market?
    will buyers get stock positions with the cheapest price as available or
    will sellers get their stock positions sold with the most expensive price as
    possible?

  20. Hey Sasha or anyone out there, I've already bought 2 of your books and read them all, they were really good books, loved all the examples you made in them.
    But now I have a question, can you suggest me any good book about volume? Like how to trade looking at volume and a more in depht (than the excellent video you already made) explenation of how volume affects a stock price.

    Stay profitable and have a good day!
    Tom
