Investing on the weekens
So let me get my excuses in first. im currently on holiday and temporarily forgot is was a Saturday when making a manual investment into my pie of ETFs. Of course none of the markets were open and so the investment is "pending"
Is it a bad idea to just leave it as is until the markets open on Monday morning? I can cancel the preorder of course and in reality, in the grand scheme of things its not a huge investment, but as a learning point I want to understand how putting in a buy order out of hours is likely to be seen.
I'm interested in market workings and any technical knowledge as to whether this places me at any disadvantaged position because of professional traders activities on opening - As much as any views on thos generally being see as a.good / bad idea.
