Note: You are trading on the US stock exchanges. These exchanges operate in the Eastern US so Eastern time applies. Trading times for NASDAQ for example are 9:30AM to 4 PM ET (so 6:30AM to 1PM PT). For example, if you trade a NASDAQ stock after 1PM, the trade will only show in your portfolio, the next morning. DO NOT repeat the trade you wish to do as you may end up with multiple transactions.
