Hi, my question here is for someone who is interested in trading stocks, but goes to school 7am-3pm central time, this means that when i get home, both markets are closed. Is after hours trading still.an option? Or is it too risky and.should be ignored altogether? My other option, if after hours are too risky to trade, would be forex, since the currecy markets are open 24hrs 6days a week. Which option is better? Keep in mind my initial deposit would be $2000
