Why isn't Pre-market and After hours data included in Daily charts?

    Hey,

    I noticed only IB data includes Pre-market and After hours in Daily/Historical charts.
    Why is that?
    I mean looking at GME yesterday how it went to 200$. shouldn't that be included?
    If the stock traded at this price, does it matter what time if its during Regular hours or not?

    some people like outside RTH data to be included.
    some don't like it.

    some charts allow you to customize whatever you want to do to the
    RTH and outside RTH data.

    yea my datafeed wasn't including outside RTH in Daily charts and honestly it gets me confused. So now I switched to IB data for Daily charts

    Mainly for the same reason Bloomberg news did not contact me for a news story on me selling 200 .222 Remington empty brass shells/ $5.00o, cash.
    SO no, we like it just fine. I seldom look @ premarket or post market;
    exceptsometimes in the WSJ if hi volume + for fun in hindsight.
    I considered selling 50% used pens, could make money, but the bank gives them away100% full, so to each his own. Thanks for the question

    OK By ME.
    I would never pass up a $5.0oo profit [ .222 Remington empty brass trade]as my example noted. I seldom record the premarket, except i record NQ or SPY....... related premarket, but i like to write stuff down........
