For US stocks, the largest marketplaces are the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and NASDAQ (based in New York City) which have normal trading hours are from 9:30 a.m. to 4.00 p.m (Eastern Standard Time) on business days, unless there's an early close due to a holiday. Orders to buy or sell will only execute during these hours.

Submitting an order within Regular Market Hours will be executed as a market order.

You can still place orders outside trading hours (Out-of-Hours), which will be queued for market order execution on the next trading day.

Limit and Stop Orders can be placed and queued at any time but will only be executed during market hours and when the conditions of the order are met.

You'll be able to submit orders outside Regular Markets hours – please check 'What is Extended Market Hours'.
