Post Market

Overview​

The Post Market profile surfaces tickers showing price movement, volume activity, and structural setups in the extended session after 4:00 PM. It highlights directional AI signals, late-day reactions, and after-hours trend continuation opportunities — especially useful around earnings releases or news-driven volatility.

info

This profile activates automatically in the Ticker Screener during post-market hours and supports scanning for late-session trade setups, reversals, or next-day watchlist ideas.

Strategy Focus​

  • Identify setups forming after the close based on AI-detected long or short bias
  • Spot earnings reactions and post-close volatility spikes across liquid tickers
  • Monitor how price behaves relative to session highs and lows to assess strength or weakness
  • Track after-hours volume and participation using liquidity and RVOL metrics
  • Align setups with strong group or theme momentum using intraday and long-term ratings
  • Use pattern detection and divergence to evaluate reversals, continuations, or next-session targets

Filters Applied​

None.

This profile is fully unfiltered to maximize discovery during a low-volume session. It supports open scanning, chart-based analysis, and combination with saved filters or alerts.

Metrics Used​

AI Strategy and Setup Quality​

  • AI - Alpha Strategy: Highlights directional bias (Long or Short) based on evolving price action and structure after the close
  • AI - Risk/Reward: Assesses setup quality based on risk/reward dynamics, useful for gauging opportunity viability after hours
  • AI - Path to Target: Measures remaining support or resistance zones toward the target — ideal for spotting clean continuation moves overnight

Volume, Liquidity, and Activity​

  • Volume All Hours: Total volume traded across pre-market, regular, and post-market sessions — used to validate after-hours participation
  • Relative Volume: Compares current volume against historical norms to detect abnormal activity in the post-market window
  • Dollar Volume Rank: Ranks tickers by capital flow to bring high-interest and tradable symbols to the top

Price Action and Structural Signals​

  • Change From Close (%): Tracks price movement since the last regular session close and helps flag continuation or fade setups after strong days
  • Change Post Market (%): Shows the percentage move from the close to the last post-market trade, with added context based on whether price has cleared the session high or low
  • RSI Divergence 14 Days: Detects trend weakening or reversal potential, useful when post-close moves conflict with prior momentum
  • Universal Pattern Detection: Flags clean directional alignment across major technical patterns, aiding confirmation in lower-volume sessions
  • Tight Range: Surfaces compressed setups that may expand into the next session after volatility contraction

Sector and Theme Context​

  • Industry Rating 1 Day, Theme Rating 1 Day: Reveal which groups led during the regular session, offering context for post-close moves
  • Industry Rating 1 Year, Theme Rating 1 Year: Highlight long-term group leadership, supporting setup conviction for follow-through
  • Relative Strength 1 Day, Relative Strength 1 Year: Track both short- and long-term relative performance to assess trend durability

Fundamentals and Timing​

  • MarketAlpha Rating: Composite strength score across fundamentals and technicals, often influencing earnings-based moves
  • EPS Rating, Sales Rating, Profit Rating: Highlight companies with strong underlying results, useful for interpreting earnings reactions
  • Accumulation/Distribution Score: Indicates institutional activity that may continue or unwind after the close
  • 52 Week High (%): Measures breakout proximity, valuable for identifying extended-session continuation setups
  • Next Earnings In Days: Tracks timing of upcoming earnings reports — essential for gauging overnight risk or positioning

Default Sorting Logic​

Results are sorted by Dollar Volume Rank (ascending) to bring the most liquid and actively followed tickers to the top. This helps prioritize post-market symbols with real price discovery, event reactions, or institutional presence.

Practical Use Cases​

  • Identify stocks reacting to earnings reports released after the bell
  • Track price movement relative to session highs/lows to spot strength or breakdowns
  • Monitor late-day continuation or reversal setups supported by AI structure
  • Use relative volume to detect meaningful post-close participation or potential gap risk
  • Surface clean technical setups forming in extended hours for next-day planning
  • Build an overnight watchlist based on structure, liquidity, and directional conviction
