Important Things to Note

While Auto Invest stock purchases can be set up at any time, the orders will be placed during market hours on days when the market is open (Mon-Fri 9:30AM–4PM EST).

The order placement times will be based on the time that you set up the purchase. If you set up an Auto Invest trade during non-market hours, the trade will be scheduled to occur after the next Market open.
