Totally agree. Ye I would like if someone could outline the times. My understanding is you get in cheaper price ie. For NYSE Or NASDAQ before the Americans wake up
If it’s something you might have flagged in the previous days or had on a watchlist and are ready to press the button on it
In practice, the cash price often moves to the PM extreme, and obviously ‘getting a better price’ implies instant dealing (£1 fee). The real advantage of PM/AH is to trade through out-of-hours events, such as earnings, the 1330GMT US reports etc.
As I said above, FT is very good platform for day-trading, as £1 is still the cheapest around.
Another vote for this, to be able to see the real time share price from after hours trading would be great.
I currently use another platform for fractionals, which I will switch over once they roll out here, seeing Tesla at $563 having closed at $545 to be able to move on this and sell at a high and wait for a dip would be great to build up the size of the said fraction!
In theory it’s possible but it is not done through the exchange but through an Electronic Communication Network (ECN) and every broke typically has different rules about what is allowed etc. I don’t know how easy it would be for Freetrade to build/utilise this facility.
Given that Freetrade have been removing ETFs which have seem low liquidity it seems unlikely they would move into this sphere. Low volumes in after hours trading venues can cause large volatility spikes, infilled or partially filled orders etc.
If ETFs with low liquidity are deemed inappropriate to remain on Freetrade it seems odd that they would then pursue this avenue.
I’d love to see pre and afterhours trading as part of Freetrade plus. I don’t think this feature is supported by many brokers so it could be a key differentiator for freetrade.
Best to vote and comment there as making mug-lie threads just dilutes votes and makes it less likely Freetrade will prioritise whatever issuing requested.
I think what we ideally want is premarket trading more so.
I’d rather place an order premarket to get in before the open than to place an order after hours?
I say it will 100% Boost Plus Value Proposition. I don’t know many Brokers which provides this kind of feature. Also I know quite a few people who are looking for this kind of feature.
