How it's calculated
Pick a date to see typical trading hours for several exchanges, converted to the time zone your browser reports. Hours can change, and holidays, early closes and extended sessions are not shown.
What this leaves out
- Typical hours only. Hours can change, and holidays, early closes, premarket and after-hours sessions, and auction periods are not shown. Check the exchange's own calendar before relying on a time.
- Reference information only. Not a recommendation of when or whether to trade.
- Many US brokers also offer premarket and after-hours trading in stocks, often from 4:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. New York time. Hours vary by broker. Crypto markets trade around the clock every day, so they are not shown.
Educational only. This calculator does arithmetic on the hypothetical numbers you enter. It is not financial advice or a recommendation, and it does not predict any result. Real trading includes costs and conditions this math leaves out.

When clocks change on different dates
The US, Europe and Australia change their clocks for daylight saving time on different dates, and Japan and Hong Kong do not change them. For a few weeks each spring and autumn the gap between New York and London is four hours instead of the usual five, so the overlap between their sessions moves by an hour in your time zone. Pick a date to see the gap on that day.
How a futures trading day is counted
Most electronic futures sessions open in the evening, Chicago time, and the session counts toward the next calendar day. The session that opens on Sunday evening is Monday's trading day, and each day ends with a daily settlement price and a short break before the next session opens.
Many charting tools call the US stock session, 09:30 to 16:00 New York time, regular trading hours (RTH) and label the rest of the futures session extended or overnight hours (ETH). An RTH chart of a futures contract leaves the overnight trading out, so its open, high, low and close can differ from a full-session chart.
