Stops after hours?

I suppose that even though I selected outside regular hours, a stop order becoming a market order can only happen during market hours so by same logic a stop>market>limit should only happen during market hours?
I'm not sure whether this logic indeed applies. I have no experience with irregular trading hours and whether order types get modified.
 
These are the trades in question. I had them set as stop-limit orders to work outside working hours, but it's my understanding that stop orders are market orders anyway so it shouldn't have worked?

And yeah I realize I should've waited for the pullback to get back in...

%% I assume that's in US dollars; my IBD data shows CSCO price May 9,10 hi $34.26-low $33.58. You may get by using a market order, with CSCO i have done stuff like that[ swing- position, medium time frame....BUT NOT first 15 minutes NasdaQQQ +open post market+ premarket, Here 4 M.

It was around 50 dma so OK buy/sell , but i seldom use market order or post+premarket. If you are selling CSCO to close a position + looks like you are; you could have entered a good till canceled @ 50 day moving average limit order , price Looks like you did a market if touched order or market order?? if you are not in US dollars call your broker. Or you typed like i did first time on this post, full of errors.LOL
