Pre-market trading refers to any trading activity that occurs before the regular market opens.
After-hours trading happens after the market has closed.
At Capitalise.ai, we only evaluate price-based conditions during regular trading sessions.
This means that pre-market and after-hours data is not considered when checking for conditions like price thresholds, moving averages, or other indicators.
Can a Strategy Still Trigger Outside of Market Hours?
Yes - but only if the condition that triggered the strategy isn’t price-based.
For example, conditions based on time, technical indicators, or account values might cause a strategy to trigger outside regular trading hours.
