Hello everyone, quick question. I am wanting to diversify and trade share CFD’s when I see opportunities but I am wondering do stop losses or take profits work during after hour trading? I can’t alter a trade during after hour trading but I wasn’t sure if stop losses would work. Probably slippage would occur if yes.

Stop losses and take profits typically do not work during after-hours trading for most brokers offering share CFDs. This is because after-hours trading often has lower liquidity and wider spreads, making it difficult for orders to execute at specific prices. It's essential to carefully consider this limitation and adjust your risk management strategy accordingly, perhaps by closely monitoring your positions or using other risk mitigation techniques during after-hours trading.

Regular trading hours are like a busy marketplace. Lots of people buy and sell, so you can usually get a fair price. After-hours trading is more like a small store at night. Fewer people around, so it can be tough to buy or sell your investments for exactly the price you want. This means your stop-loss or take-profit orders might not happen at the exact price you set. To be safe, it's usually better to wait for the market to open when there's more activity.
