But do you have information on how we can get on that bandwagon to do after-hours trading at all? Not to sound too much like an ad, but there's a company called "PT Discount" that will let you do it. Minimum investment is $25,000, and despite their name they're not a basement-level discount broker (somewhat higher commissions than Schwab, I think). You have to satisfy slightly more stringent income requirements to qualify, I assume because you're obviously not trading long-term if you're so concerned about getting AH trades in. Try toll-free directory assistance, or watch CNBC straight for 12 hours and their ad will come up. I decided not to give it a try for the reason stated in my earlier post -- AH trades are not sufficiently predictable (at least, not to me) for me to want to participate.
