Weekend and overnight trading

Updated 2026-07-05
Quick answer

You can trade any market while it is open in the terminal; closed markets cannot accept new trades until they reopen.

  • Trade buttons show availability based on the selected market
  • Daily resets use UTC, including weekends
  • Existing trade results count when they settle
  • Closed markets do not accept new trades
Worked example — Market closed
You select a market that is currently closed
The terminal marks it unavailable
You wait until the market reopens
New trades can be placed only after availability returns
Edge cases
  • Does a weekend day count as a trading day?

    Only if you place at least one trade on that UTC day on a market that is available.

  • Do rules pause on weekends?

    No. Balance, drawdown, payout, and activity rules remain attached to the account.
