HI All long time no post . =====
I bought some amat today / after hours as it was droping . My question is this ( hope someone has experience with this ) I bought at 16.5 in the after hours trading there were hits for 10k at 16.6 16.8 16.94 etc etc. I had my shares on the ecn for 16.85 and never got hit ????? I am kinda confused on this one. I saw the t adn s go buy my screen. Any Idea on why my small 1000 shares never get sold - they weren't even the best price . This one is confusing to me.

It takes a buyer to buy a stock you're selling. I might be totally wrong, but it would make sense that in aftermarket there's far less volume than during the day. Post market trading can also be much more risky. The position you were trying to sell probably did not have a buyer at the specific time.
