Tiger Brokers said on Nov. 2, 2026 that clients of its Tiger Trade app can now buy and sell US single-stock options outside regular market hours, in a pre-market window that opens at 7:30 a.m. Eastern and closes five minutes before the 9:30 a.m. bell, and in a 15-minute session that follows the 4 p.m. close, according to a company announcement distributed by PR Newswire.

The service starts with options on more than 20 widely held US stocks, among them Apple, NVIDIA, Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon and Meta, and is available in the markets where the brokerage is licensed. Orders entered outside the regular session must be limit orders, and the firm said it sends them straight to US exchanges rather than filling them through over-the-counter market makers.

"Sometimes major events land before the open or after the close," said Wu Tianhua, founder and chief executive of Tiger Brokers.

The company, listed on Nasdaq in 2019 as UP Fintech Holding Limited, reported 26.3 million options and futures contracts traded on its platform in the second quarter of 2026, up 17.3% from a year earlier. It counted about 2.74 million customer accounts and $60.7 billion in client assets as of June 30, 2026, a 16.7% annual increase.
