Why might market quotes differ from executable prices in post-market trading? 

Certain exchanges disseminate quotes during the 4:00 PM – 4:15 PM ET window without offering extended hours trading. As a result, market quotes displayed during this time may not always reflect executable prices.

Why don’t I see extended hours options trading in my app?

To access extended hours options trading, you may need to update your mobile app (through the App Store or Google Play Store) or desktop app to the latest version. After updating, fully close and reopen the app. Please note that extended hours trading is available only for eligible symbols during the sessions listed above.
