Transactions in Nasdaq-listed securities executed between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. ET are reported to which entity?

Floor of the exchange
TRF within 10 seconds
The TRF within 10 seconds and designated ".T"
The TRF within 10 seconds and designated ".Z" with the execution time

The correct answer is: The TRF within 10 seconds and designated ".T"

When transactions in Nasdaq-listed securities occur between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. ET, they are reported to the Trade Reporting Facility (TRF). This reporting must occur within 10 seconds, which ensures real-time transparency in the trading process. Additionally, these after-hours transactions are designated with a ".T" suffix. This designation helps distinguish these trades from those executed during regular trading hours, allowing both traders and regulators to identify the timing of the transaction accurately. Understanding the structure of after-hours trading is crucial for compliance and reporting standards. The use of specific designations informs market participants about the nature of the trades, assisting in clarity and regulatory tracking.
