Trading hours on Independence Day 2017 and after Thanksgiving Day

[michaelsrew]

I think QuantConnect.Lean trades during after hours like it would be normal trading hours on the 25.11.
The after hours startet on the 25.11 at 13:00 till 17:00 i think.

check also Christmas Eve Observed on the 23.11 maybe it is also till 13:00.

Might be a data issue? It should not have any *data* after 1pm, so the OnData shouldn't be called

Hmm it works with almost every stock.... SPY, GOOG,.....
:)

[michaelsrew]

Or,
i dont exactly know how it works but..... the FILLFORWARD is true so because of the trading hours it bought the stock... maybe.

[jaredbroad]

Yes that'll be it -- the FF is creating the bars and the market hours don't support half days yet. Thank you for reporting, we'll try and submit a fix soon.
