How can we help?

Wall St regular trading hours

Regular market hours are 9:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. ET (Eastern Time). Stake supports two additional trading sessions:

  • Pre-Market: 4:00 a.m. – 9:30 a.m. ET

  • After-Hours: 4:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. ET

You can enable Extended Hours trading on Stake to make more timely decisions and seize more opportunities. It’s important to exercise additional due diligence when trading in Extended Hours. These sessions may not be suitable for all investors or all strategies.

Local time is Eastern Time (ET), which is UTC-5 during Eastern Standard Time (EST) or UTC-4 during Eastern Daylight Time (EDT).

 

The easiest way to keep track is by checking the market clock:

  • On Stake App, it’s at the top of the Invest screen.

  • On the Stake Web, you’ll find it at the bottom left of the Invest screen.
