Spread lebar, liquidity tipis, manipulation tinggi
Itu ghost zone. Liquidity tipis, spread lebar 3–5×, dan lu jadi easy target buat manipulation.
Regular hours: liquidity tinggi, spread ketat, banyak buyer-seller. After-hours: volume turun 85%, spread melebar, price gampang dimanipulasi.
Regular hours spread: $0.01–$0.02. After-hours: $0.05–$0.10. Lu kehilangan 0.3% instantly cuma dari spread.
Buy high, sell low sebelum harga bergerak.
Order book cuma 200 shares per level (vs 5,000+ regular hours). Lu order 500 shares → price slippage 0.8%.
Eksekusi jadi lottery, bukan controlled entry.
Lu buy after-hours di $50. Next day open regular hours di $48.50. Gap down 3% sebelum lu bisa react.
After-hours price bukan anchor buat open price.
Bukan representasi true demand.
Itu artinya: 1 order besar (500 shares) bisa gerakkan price 2% tanpa effort. Lu jadi exit liquidity buat algo trading.
After-hours buat institusi news-trade, bukan buat retail speculation. Kalau lu bukan urgent, tunggu regular hours.
