CVMarkets analyst Mr. Martin Bird says investors largely look up to it because it gives them time to react to your news and lets them sell and buy stocks before the official market hours.

He further stated that the fact that a lot of risks are associated with the market, due to extreme volatility and this is what marks it inappropriate for the neophytes. 

Although high net worth traders largely make use of it,  in actuality it is open to everyone. It gives them insights into what route market and individual securities are talking about before regular trading begins formally.
