Please note that Daylight Saving Time (DST) in the United States will end on November 2, 2025, with clocks moving back by one hour. As a result, trading hours for certain financial instruments connected to US market schedules may change, including major indices, commodities, and Forex pairs.

Key Points to Keep in Mind:

  • Time Adjustment: US clocks will move back by one hour, which may change the opening and closing times of markets when viewed from your local time zone.
  • Instrument-Specific Schedules: Trading hours may vary between instruments, so always check your trading platform or broker for the latest schedule.
  • Plan Your Trading: Review your strategy, pending orders, and planned trade times to ensure they align with the updated market hours.
  • Effect on Global Sessions: The US time change may temporarily alter the timing relationship between American and other international trading sessions.
At SPXTeam, we encourage traders to review open positions, pending orders, and relevant market schedules before the time change takes effect. Staying informed about seasonal trading-hour adjustments can help reduce unexpected disruptions, improve planning, and support more effective risk management.
