CFI extends trading hours in US stocks
CFI Financial Group, a leading online brokerage, recently introduced a new feature on its CFI Multi-Asset platform: pre and post trading of physical U.S.-listed stocks.
This innovative addition is designed to provide traders with opportunities outside of standard market hours, emphasizing CFI's commitment to improving the trading experience through cutting-edge solutions, FNG reported.
The introduction of trading before and after market hours allows traders to capitalize on market-moving events and news that occur outside of the traditional trading window. By offering access to these extended hours, CFI gives its clients the opportunity to take advantage of significant price movements that might otherwise be missed if restricted to normal trading hours.
Key benefits of extended trading hours:
- Extended access: with this new feature, traders can enter the U.S. markets before they officially open and after they close, providing greater flexibility and the ability to work the markets at their convenience.
- Unique trading opportunities: market news and events often fall outside of standard trading hours, which can lead to significant price movements. Extended trading hours allow traders to react quickly to these events, which can improve their trading strategies.
- Increased flexibility: this feature allows traders to incorporate after-hours trading into their overall strategy, making it easier to adapt to market conditions and capitalize on opportunities as they arise.
CFI Financial's new feature allows clients to trade in the hours before the market opens from 8:00 to 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time and in the hours after the market opens from 4:00 to 4:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
This expanded access is expected to be particularly useful for investors looking to optimize their trading strategies by taking advantage of events that occur outside of normal trading hours.
