Webull’s 22 October 2026 announcement sets out extended-hours trading for selected US stock and ETF options. Its current help page specifies a premarket session beginning at 7:30 am Eastern, a narrow post-market session and controls that differ from ordinary equity trading.[1][2]
Published options trading windows
| Session | US Eastern time | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Premarket | 7:30–9:25 am | Eligible symbols only |
| Regular market | 9:30 am–4:00 pm | Selected symbols retain regular trading until 4:15 pm |
| Post-market | 4:00–4:15 pm | Eligible symbols that do not already trade until 4:15 pm in regular hours |
Access and order settings
| Control | Documented requirement |
|---|---|
| Order type | Limit orders only |
| Strategies | Single-leg and multi-leg; stock-tied order types excluded |

The listed stock underlyings are AAPL, AMD, AMZN, AVGO, BABA, BAC, F, GOOG, GOOGL, HOOD, INTC, META, MRVL, MSFT, MU, NFLX, NOK, NVDA, ORCL, PFE, PLTR, SNDK, TSLA and TSM. The ETFs are SPY, QQQ, IWM, GLD and XLF. This is an eligibility list for the documented service, not a statement that every option series or order is executable at all times.[2]
Webull warns that some exchanges disseminate quotations between 4:00 and 4:15 pm without offering extended-hours execution. A visible quote in that window may therefore be unavailable for a fill. Customers also need a supported, updated app and the correct session setting; switching on extended hours does not itself guarantee liquidity.[2]
