Are there any brokers that let you filter out the 8am 1minute candle premarket spikes on volatile stocks?
As someone who only trades active pre-market tickers this makes trading from 8am-8:30am basically impossible on etrade. This has caused me to lose thousands by going to place a trade during these spikes and caused me to get a never ending loading icon near my cursor having to close and reopen the app leaving zero confidence in trades during this window. I’ve researched hours into this subject and very rarely you’ll see someone who said their platform either filters them out completely or provides you with a way to toggle them off and is seriously making me consider switching. A filter would be preferred as I saw some people say it’s important data to have to be able to mark dark pool levels for intraday as well as AI entry/exit levels
For reference this is what they are supposed to mean: "ADFN" reporting extreme volume or price spikes on your trading charts typically refers to large blocks of off-exchange (dark pool) trades. These are off exchange transaction that never touch a lit exchange. The ADFN is run by FINRA, and since they are off-exchange, they aren’t reported in real-time. They are generally reported to the Time-And-Sales around 8:00 a.m. each morning. These orders can be negotiated, and since they are off-exchange they don’t have to comply with the NBBO(National Best Bid/Best Offer). By law, all transaction must be reported to the time and sales, so when these orders go through around 8:00 they may be way different from the current price of the stock. This causes the candles to jump around…some charting software allows you to filter these orders so they don’t create those candles. If you look at your level 2 or your order book, you will see that the bid and the ask is not changing.
