The CBOE is planning to allow pre market trading, starting Monday August 17th, in certain equity options
The expected stocks to trading are,
AAPL, AMD, AMZN, AVGO, BABA, BAC, GOOG, GOOGL, HOOD, INTC, META, MSFT, MU, NFLX, NOK, NVDA, ORCL, PFE, PLTR, TSLA, TSM.
Trading would begin at 730am et. There would also be a 15 minute curb session from 400 to 415pm et.
Your broker would have to allow access, and I would guess most wont right away.
Note that this has been planned and delayed in the past.
