OnFin has issued an important notice to clients regarding temporary changes to its trading schedule in observance of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday on January 19, 2026. The adjusted hours will affect a wide range of global indices, commodities and equity CFDs, reflecting reduced market activity during the U.S. public holiday.
- Chosen by 3 200+ local traders in the last 3 months.
- Traders earn on average 12% more per month vs other brokers.
The company said the changes are intended to align trading conditions with underlying market closures and early shutdowns, and it advised traders to review and adjust open positions in advance to manage potential risks.
Adjusted trading hours across major markets
According to OnFin, all schedule changes on January 19, 2026, are based on Eastern European Time (EET). Several major equity indices will close earlier than usual. The S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, Dow Jones 30, Nikkei 225 and Russell 2000 will stop trading at 20:00 EET. European and Asia-Pacific indices including the ASX 200, Euro Stoxx 50, CAC 40, DAX 40 and FTSE 100 will close at 23:00 EET.
Commodity markets will also see shortened sessions. Trading in metals, WTI crude oil and natural gas (NGAS) will end at 21:30 EET. In addition, trading in U.S. CFD shares and AR CFD shares will be fully closed for the day.
OnFin emphasized that liquidity may be lower than usual during the shortened sessions, which could result in wider spreads and increased volatility around market close times.
What traders need to know
The broker urged clients to ensure their trading strategies and risk management settings account for the holiday schedule. This includes monitoring margin requirements, adjusting stop-loss and take-profit levels, and avoiding last-minute exposure ahead of early market closures.
OnFin operates as a multi-asset trading platform, providing access to global indices, commodities, shares and other financial instruments through flexible trading conditions and user-focused infrastructure. Regular updates on trading schedules and market conditions are part of the company’s effort to support transparency and informed decision-making.
