What is after-hours trading?
The US stock market opens at 9:30 AM and closes at 4:00 PM.

After-hours trading, you can buy and sell shares after the market closes and before it opens on the next day.



How does it work?
If you want to trade after-hours, you’d have to place the buy or sell orders on an ECN, which stands for Electronic Communication Network.

This network was available only to institutional investors and HNIs earlier. However, with the rise of tech in this space, ECNs have become much more accessible.

Reasons to take trades after-hours
Many traders analyze price movements while the open market and take trades based on that after hours.

This allows them to plan their trades and reduce risks.

Traders may also trade in after hours if any company releases its earnings after closing the market.

After-hours trading example
Amazon released its quarterly earnings after the market closed on 28th July 2022.

The result indicated growth in revenue for the company, and Amazon’s shares jumped 14% in the after hours.


Risks
In the after hours, there are going to be fewer traders active in the market.

This will lead to lower liquidity in the market which further leads to high volatility in the market.

Finally, prices in the normal market hours and the after-hours will vary. This happens because the after-hours trading data is not linked so it may show different data on different platforms.
