For interactive brokers, it these hours will depend on whether you have a lite or pro account with them. With a pro account the premarket hours begin at 4am eastern time and the after hours goes until 8pm eastern time. With a lite account those hours will be from 7am - 8pm.

So between those hours, you can buy and sell stock just like normal, but theres a couple things you need to do to make that order work correctly. First off, you have to use a limit order and second, you have to identify you want the order active outside the regular trading hours.
