What is 24-hour trading?

If the stock is eligible, you can trade it not only during regular trading hours (opening hours) but also during after-hours trading (pre-market, after-market, and night trading hours), meaning you can trade 24 hours a day, excluding maintenance periods.

There are also no balance fees or withdrawal fees.

Question 3

Why is the amount I can withdraw less than my wallet balance?

Accepted Answer

The proceeds from the sale of US stocks will be reflected in your withdrawable balance on the later of the following two domestic business days (the domestic trade date) or the US settlement date (the US settlement date).

Furthermore, if you have a completed sell order before the domestic settlement date, the withdrawable balance may be lower than the actual settlement amount due to the collection of taxes (capital gains tax) in your specified account.

Once the domestic settlement date arrives, the amount of tax to be collected or refunded will be finalized and reflected in your withdrawable balance.

However, if the domestic settlement date is the first business day of the month, the reflection in your withdrawable balance will occur on the next business day (the second business day of the month).

Please also refer to the "About Withdrawals" section on the Alpaca Securities website.
