Advanced Trade after the halt if you expect to be away for the adjust.  Make sure you know exactly how this works before you try it.

saturday?? Wait... is it OW calls and puts that halt on Friday, then? {nm} GuitarGenius7 Jul 28, 10:01

Check the Announcement Board for previous MovieStock Adjusts, which are usually between 10-11 am Pacific. Antibody Jul 28, 14:13

Yes... many times you can log in on Saturday...get the weekend #'s... and change positions if you need to before the openers halt! Flash Jul 28, 10:20

well said! And thank you for some 3rd person info that I didn't have, myself! {nm} EggNogAdam Jul 28, 11:31
