>You're not going to be able to trade successfully outside of market hours unless you have a really good understanding of how the markets work and what drives price movements. Even then, it's extremely difficult to do because you don't have access to the same information that traders who are active during market hours do. I would suggest either finding a way to trade during market hours, or just avoiding trading altogether if you can't commit the time necessary to research and monitor your positions.

How? The question is about OPTIONS TRADING after hours, which isn't even a thing (with very little exception). VM responded about trading securities AH, but didn't even realize options (which is OP's question) aren't traded in the AH market.

Trading options outside of hours... It's not a difficult concept. OP is asking about trading... options... outside of normal hours.

I place limit orders AH more to remind me what I was thinking the day(s) before. Sometimes they fill and sometimes I have to go in and change them to market during trading hours.

I've done that, a prayer, hoping to catch a steep drop in options pricing that will let my order fill. But options trading doesn't resume until 9am lol... I still don't understand where some of these folks are getting confused on OP asking about options trading outside of normal market hours.
