I have a question for you
I set a price alert at Amazon for 160€ which was also reached today but outside of 15:30 to 17:30 I think it was around 10-12 o'clock. They say the spread is lower later, but it would still make sense to buy outside the price times if the alarm goes off in my case and you could get a great price, right? Because now the price is back at around €173

@bull_investor_1994_ I don't quite understand right now and I'm on the line. Did the price alert go off? Why didn't you buy? Aren't you buying on the German stock exchange? Dear @Get_Rich_or_Die_Tryin, can you help us?
@Tenbagger2024
Either I have fundamentally misunderstood something or I have no idea.
I always thought you always had to buy between 3:30-5:30 p.m., probably because of the spread.
But the alarm came before this time
@Multibagger Can you help? :)

@bull_investor_1994_ I don't understand right now. Amazon is also traded in € on the German stock exchange. You're not tied to the US times.
@Tenbagger2024
Okay, I once read that you should only buy between 15:30-17:30. What exactly does that apply to?

@bull_investor_1994_ This primarily affects derivatives on US equities, as issuers do not have sufficient liquidity outside US trading hours to provide adequate prices for more market-oriented stocks. Amazon is not one of them. The only way I can explain the 17:30 is that this is when some of the stock exchanges in Germany close. But that's not interesting because you can also trade the derivatives directly with the issuer, i.e. at least until 22:00

@Multibagger means from when to when can/should you trade if you only want to buy shares?
I'm a bit annoyed because my price alert went off at 160€ but due to my misinformation this morning I thought that wasn't a good time

@bull_investor_1994_ If you are purely interested in the spread, you should look at when the largest trading volume occurs, there are certainly statistics for this

@bull_investor_1994_ With big players like $Amazon, it doesn't matter at all. You can follow your alarms immediately.
@Tellotellz that's really strange why it always appears at 15:30-17:30.
But I think that probably makes little difference
In other words, if the price is supposedly good, the time of purchase is unimportant.
