I am currently live-trading an algo with the Alpaca integration, and would like my trades to be executed during extended hours. I notice Alpaca allows API users to submit limit orders that are eligible to be filled in extended-market hours, by submitting a boolean parameter to the orders themselves.
This implementation is a little different to QC's. I've seen other forum threads suggesting that after hours trading is possible with the IB integration (using extendedMarketHours=True in the AddEquity method). If I do the same and deploy the algo with Alpaca, will QC's API integration be smart enough to adjust my orders for me?
