"Revelations about After-Hours Trading and Technical Analysis" with Rick Lehman



Most people perceive that after-hours trading in US stocks and indexes is sporadic, light volume activity that is the province of small retail speculators, and therefore relatively unimportant. The truth is that after-hours trading is much more established and important than most people think. Yet, even after 15 years of after-hours trading on the NYSE and NASDAQ, price history for trades executed after-hours are still not publicly disseminated and chart services do not include it. This has significant implications for investors, and particularly market technicians, who rely heavily upon the availability of an accurate and complete picture of price history. Material for this presentation is drawn from Rick’s own research as well as others, and appears in a recent paper submitted to the MTA.
