I'd love to see some discussion of pre-market trading in general. My broker recently started doing online pre-market trading through Island. (And doesn't SelectNet open at 9:00? So I might have that route as well - just haven't tried it.) Previously, they only offered after-market trading through INCA, and you had to call them on the phone to do that. They still don't offer post-market online. Anyway, it seems that most of the emphasis on off-hours trading has been on post-market trading. Also, post-market trading has been typically more accessible to individuals than pre-market. It seems to me there may be some unique opportunities in pre-market trading. In particular, you have the advantage that, while it is a thin market, it is immediately followed by a very robust market. (So robust, that you have to concern yourself with slow execution speed...) In post-market trading, you have a thin market followed by NO market (until the next day). Anybody doing a lot of pre-market trading?
